The script uses the rep stars at http://www.xbox.com/xweb/xbox/xboxV2/images/gc_repstars_V2Shell_.png Microsoft has totally revamped the way the mini gamercard looks since I wrote that script, and they've taken down those rep star images - which is why you're not seeing them. The script would have to be rewritten to use something like http://live.xbox.com/xweb/lib/images/MyXbox/repstars20.png But I don't have the time to do that right now. A few things here:

Lukegrill's code worked for this - <code>http://gagefaulkner.com/newdirectory/cgi-bin/xbox-gamercard-standalone.php?tag=XiL+Destruction</code> However, the image isn't showing up... it is just a bunch of jumbled words. Can someone help me? Can someone tell me why this isn’t working?

Just added the line: $tag= $_GET['tag']; You might want to post this for anybody else who wants to get the same functionality. Thanks again for a great script! superb! I actually fixed it.

Thanks you so much for relesing it. I have a question however that i hope you can answer. I've uploaded the script to my server, lets say it's http://www.mysite.com/scripts/gamercard.php I've tried going to the url http://www.mysite.com/scripts/gamercard.php?tag=MYGAMERTAG but it keeps showing 'ardemis' gamertag, it's not picking up the ?tag= Any idea why it's doing this? Many Thanks Hi Ardemis, great script. Thanks you so much for relesing it.

The path to the Reputation images has changed to the following: http://live.xbox.com/xweb/lib/images/MyXbox/repstars20.png Just need to amend line 124 to the following: $navgamerrep = "http://live.xbox.com/xweb/lib/images/MyXbox/repstars" . $gamerrep . ".png"; Awesome plugin, that is all! This may have been cover in other comments above but as I’ve not got time to read them all I’ll post it anyway.

Don't think any error messages are being shown. I think I followed the instructions correctly, uploaded everything, appended style.css, even added my own cache txt file to the blog root, but still nothing. Don't know where to look now!
