Donation Thermometer 1.6.5

Donation Thermometer is a module with an editable image of a thermometer similar to what you would have seen at Church fund raising drives. The original module was based on an open source script creation of Arkie.Net but has now been completely remodelled from the ground up eliminating the need for GD Library. The width, height, funding goal, current amount raised, date last updated and currency can all be adjusted in the module's parameters. As well as a few other options including caching, module suffix, html pre-text and post-text. This is my first attempt at a joomla extension so go easy on me :) If you know how to improve this module (like implementing IPN integration with paypal, so that the thermometer auto updates with each donation) please let me know.CHANGES IN 1.6.5 & 1.3.5- added more formatting options giving the ability to stylise most of the elements shown on screen- changed the layout of the information to the right of the thermometerCHANGES IN 1.6.4 & 1.3.4- fixed hard coded bar background and foreground colors- fixed php shortcuts- added ability to change separator character- added ability to control main text color- added ability to set background similarity of thermometer bulb, resulting in a cleaner image.CHANGES IN 1.6.1 & 1.3.1- Squashed one or two bugs- Added rounding to the percentage number over the thermometer bulbCHANGES IN 1.6- Completely remodelled from the ground up- No longer requires GD LibraryCHANGES IN 1.5.1 & 1.2.1- Slight code cleanup- Addition of a donate button in the modules descriptionCHANGES IN 1.5This version is Joomla 1.5.x native. Please use 1.2 for Joomla 1.0.x- Also added the additional parameters to change the default text of "Our Goal", "Currently" and "Updated" so that you can use this module with any language of your choice.If anyone would like to contribute to the development of this module, please contact me and I'll add you as a project developer on joomlacode.
