punkbuster screenshots

PB takes screenshots, names them pb000001.png, creates a page called pb000001.htm and dumps it in the pb\svss dir. I'm wondering if there's a way to dump that onto my webspace so that they can be viewed in realtime on my site. I really don't know much about perl, but I thought you might have some other script that does something similar for another app kicking around?

Thanks,

well I ran into a similar issue with my TFC server years ago.

I could not use Perl to auto upload to web server as they do not allow real time stats or images, etc... BUT

What I did do was use batch FTP.
With this free utility, you can schedule downloads and uploads to different servers.
So I would Dload the stats ebery hour, have them parsed and then have them sent up to web server...all this happened in a 5 minute interval.... using windows built in scheduling and batch ftp.....
You could do the same with dloading the pics and then sending them up to your web server.

here's a link if you want to try that way. This may be the same proggy, it's been a while since I had need of it and it is not installed on this machine, so I can't check..
Looks like they have improved it since I used it.
