I can't test it but... well played Samtron it looks great And it's > to conky because you can put links and cool graphics o/
Now I really should to extend the info, like current map on the 4 servers, how many people online... Thanks for the link to the wiki by the way =)

is it me or does it only show the online admins/ moderators?

[Samtron]

It isn't you It shows only registered users, not all players on the server. Everybody with an account in forums will be displayed, like GrafZahl right now (2010-03-19 13:05), but you are right, that are mostly mods and admins.
If it would display all players, a gadget of size 130x350 pixels is way too small for 40+ players inclusive IRC idlers...

Ye Or maybe a list (like on the FF bar) could be fine, but you would have to click...

true, good call, though I have one counter argument: it would be nice to see at least the amount of online players so that in case no mod/ admin is online (which one can know because the gadget shows only registered users and all mods/ admins are registered), you can decide to jump online to monitor players' behaviour.
It would be nice if it perhaps also show the currently playing map, I hate to go online and play that idiot map subterra....

edit: maybe only show the registered users and a counter for the total amount of online players. The counter can have a mouseover and will show the entire list on on_mouseover via some sort of popup, if possible?
On on_mouseout it should just display the gadget again me thinks.
How does that sound?

just a few tips
