资源说明：Use ImageMagick to create a "live" background for Twitter
LIVE TWITTER BACKGROUND - (c) RegenspanTeractive
===========================================================
Description
-----------
Live Twitter Background produces a Twitter background using
the desired "live" input data.
Example: http://cloud.github.com/downloads/bregenspan/live-twitter-background/example-background.jpg
Current available inputs:
* Recent followers
* Skype status
Dependencies
------------
* PHP5+
* Imagemagick
* Imagick PHP extension
* Verdana: verdana.ttf and verdanab.ttf (get them from
http://corefonts.sourceforge.net/ and place in assets/fonts)
* twitter-async by Jaisen Mathai (included in "/lib" folder)
More info: https://github.com/jmathai/twitter-async
Usage
-----
* Set up a new application on twitter.com
* In config.json, set the app keys and user token info
* Ensure that the folder containing generate-background.php,
as well as the "retrieved" folder, arewriteable to the
user you will run the script with
* Tweak other config.json settings as desired.
For a different background image, place the image
in assets/images/ and update the display->background_image
config.json property to the new filename.
Run: php generate-background.php
You may want to first comment out the line:
$twh->setBackground('background.jpg');
Until you are satisfied with the outputted background.jpg
* Add to a cron for "live" updates
Notes
-----
This is an old project with many TODOs including ability
to right-align the list of followers (default is left-align),
plus better comments and code cleanup.
I stopped developing this when Twitter increased the width
of the default desktop interface, however the generated
backgrounds are still fully visible in browser windows of
1300px+ width.
Verdana is not a very good font and could probably be replaced
with an open source one (or licensed Helvetica if you want
to be classy).
