About MC-Server-Banner-API
MC-Server-Banner-API documents an API that generates Minecraft server status banners as PNG images through HTTP GET requests. A basic request using a server IP returns a banner with a default dirt background, with options to set width, display name, port, offline message, background image, ping icon value, timezone, and date format.

How do I create a basic banner?
Request https://api.loohpjames.com/serverbanner.png?ip= to generate a banner with the default dirt background, cached for 5 minutes.
Why is the ping not measured?
Because whether the ping is good or not from the API server is not useful to the end user, so a ping value is supplied manually for the icon.
