I am keeping a chart of scores for a summer event and would like an easier way to do this...

http://dci.jamesmeister.com/

Currently I am using OmniGraffle and with every new set of ranks and scores I have to manually copy and paste in a new column, relocate the icons in the correct rank and manually input a score...

What I would like to know is... is there an app out there, that will take a folder of icons, and based on numerical data input in said app, organize the icons in a column for that day and display it like I have this chart, then publish to a URL?

Or is OG the best for this?

A PHP or SQL based system would be cool as well but not required.

PHP could do that pretty quickly.

If you give me access to the original icons for each team, and explain how the scoring system works, I'd be happy to whip up some code for you to produce that PNG.

I'm imagining just reading a tab-delimited file with team names in rows, and scores across in columns.

You could also have a web page for entering said scores...

You could also automate doing it the way you are now using OmniGraffle via AppleScript...
