I was browsing around twitter the other day, and saw a small website that someone had created that put all your friends into a single PNG file as a montage, which I thought was a cool idea. The only issue was the fact that it didnt automatically update. After having a quick poke around with the API and the image library for PHP, i came up with this:
http://www.petebones.com/twitter/followers.php?user=PeteBones
Which looks something like this:
[EDIT: ok, so this is broken... html version below looks ok, will look into this :) ]
This creates a PNG of your last 100 followers, which seems to work great, and is about as far as you can go if you want to use this in wordpress.
The next evolution was a page that does the same almost, except its not limited to the last 100, and it also displays the friends as html, with each user image being a link to the respective persons twitter account.

I know they are both kind of pointless, but it was a fun little side project to learn a little more PHP! Feel free to use the pages yourself, just swap out PeteBones with your twitter ID.
