There's only so much you can sex up a bandwidth graph - particularly if you want to be able to include it in an email, or print onto a invoice. There's probably more benefit in analysing the graph - peak times, unexpected peaks, min, max, 95th percentile, average, etc. There are various graphing tools out there, most of which will generate pretty good looking graphs, with various levels of work required to achieve. Much depends on what language you're working in, and in what format you want the graphs out. Simon
