meter scripting question ?

can anyone come up with a script that takes c: drive usage and if c drive is 14 percent used then show 14.png if c drive is 50 percent used then show 50.png etc. i know how to do the graphics end and have done the bars to death but i'd like to play around with some analog or pie chart meters. i think a meter script like this would open up alot of skinning possibilities. of course i guess loading 100 pngs would be a hog for mem or a pain as far as being a sloppy way to do this. i know how the zoomer anim strips work but i can't find anything else in the forum...

 

thank you for any help...

If you examined a weather widget and worked on understanding how the weather image is selected you could then make the DX widget yourself.
