save graphs

Looking really awesome! initial feedback - the current graphs can be saved as images as a way to export them. (The RRD ones). It would be great if Longview allowed a way to export graphs.

Ooh! I'd like to see who else is interested in this. Shouldn't be hard, just curious to see how much demand there is for it.

Do you archive your existing RRD graph images from the manager?

For me - I wouldn't call it archiving since I don't make them very consistently, But I do like to save the images and embed them on the forum we use. Especially for the Linode I use for VoIP, users vary a bit, sometimes we are lowish with ~60-70 users online, but then there's a project running and there'll be 200+ users online. Saving the images and embedding them as images on the forums we use is quite handy for the people who are interested in these graphs but don't have access to the Linode Manager.

Thanks for the response!

Awesome, thanks for the feedback! Let's leave the thread open and see who else is interested. It shouldn't be difficult, we just need time to do everything and eventually exit the beta :D

I could see it being used frequently for Linode Forum posts. Otherwise, we would probably end up with weird, low-quality screen caps that lack context, or broken images, or both.

Why is my Linode crashing ??

My CPU is really high, like at least nine pineapples high.

I think the ability to save / export a graph image is definitely a must.

I also occasionally save my Linode manager graphs, to post somewhere, or to add to my collection.

I am capable of taking screenshots, though.

This is great. I'll link to this thread as proof. Wouldn't want you guys to have to suffer with ASCII charts.
