I dunno, it seems overly general but not actually off topic. On a unix (Linux, BSD, Unix) system you would set up a cron job that executes a php script every night to that loops through each account and emails the next picture. I'm not sure how you would do this on Windows but there must be a way. It gets much more interesting if you have > 10,000 accounts or a limited time window in which to send the pictures, at which point you need to create a more sophisticated architecture with multiple processes each sending to their own segment of the user base. -- Chris Snyder http://chxo.com/ _______________________________________________ New York PHP Community Talk Mailing List http://lists.nyphp.org/mailman/listinfo/talk NYPHPCon 2006 Presentations Online http://www.nyphpcon.com Show Your Participation in New York PHP http://www.nyphp.org/show_participation.php
