So, if I were to do 'cat 1.gif 2.gif 3.gif 4.gif > 1234.gif' at the command line, I'd get a GIF that displays '1234' if each of the original file contains a number?

Don't forget to use the right HTTP header for printing an image (image/gif).
And don't forget to open the files using binmode if you are under Windows.

But your program will be totally useless for the blind visitors that won't
be able to read that image on the screen.
A better idea would be to use server side includes and print a text hit
counter, or use Javascript to include the text generated by a CGI script if
your server doesn't accept SSI.

That will work, but I'd like to combine them into one image if possible.

name your gifs 1.gif, 2.gif 3.gif 4.gif, etc

once you have your number stored in a variable (hit count), split it

into an array then loop through the array and append the .gif to the number and write the path to page as an image source.

Logic:

myvariable = 12536    <-- hit count amount
myarray = myvariable split by number
for i = 0 to end of array
"<img src>" & myarray(i) & ".gif</img src>"
next
