Graphs you use on reviews?

Well, I'm sure I had a membership with another nickname but couldn't remember what it was. Sorry for the possible duplicate membership (this nickname looks better though. :) ).

I wonder what software you use for graphs you use on reviews. I've been using MS Excel and OpenOffice.Org Calc but neither of them can produce beautiful and clear graphs as yours. Particularly, item names inside the graph bars is nice.

So, would you share this info if it's not classified? :)

Thanks in advance.

we need to know what kind of graphs? the FPS graphs? or all together.
I suggest using FLASH, for the best looking graph.

Exactly this kind.
Hmm.. I've never tried Flash. I'm a little, no, quite a bit Linux oriented actually, using Windows on virtual machines. Will give it a try as soon as possible. Thanks a lot.

By the way, did you mean the type of graph on the page I gave link to, or another one? Perhaps OpenOffice guys should rework graphs, it's lagging far behind Excel on that area and simple and elegant graphs like yours would surely be appreciated by users...

Edit: Saying "yours", I meant TechPowerUp's graphs. :) Pardon me for being a little dizzy, it's almost 2 am here and I still have a lot of work to do.

They are created using a program/template/plugin for photoshop. I'm not sure what it is since I didn't write it. You would have to send w1zzard a pm to ask for permission to use it or an explanation of how it works.

Photoshop... Not in my short list of abilities. :)
Thanks for the reply. It seems I'll have to look for a simpler solution.
