DynamicMotd+.png

The other day I was bored and was playing around with some things and actually found this to be pretty cool, so today I'm deciding to share my creation here with the spigot community!
Commands:
/dynamicmotd reload : Reloads the config.yml
permission: dynamicmotd.use

Features:

MOTD:
- Different motds for new players

- Different motds for returning players

- Random motd: selects a random motd from a list and sets it as the motd

Server Icons:
- Option for randomized server icons: uses images that you put in the "server-icons" folder, these images must meet the requirements to be a server-icon (64x64 pixels, .png format)

- Option to display an image of the players head as the server icon: You can choose from two different head types, normal and render (These icons are per-player and requires the player to join at least once)

Join Images:
- Option to send a player an image in their chat: You can choose from different image options such as sending an image of their head in chat upon joining. Put images in the "join-images" folder for this to work and enable it in the config.yml. Thanks to bobacadodl for this awesome image library.

Max Players:
-Just for fun, allows you to change the number that appears as maximum players while pinging the server. (This does not actually change the player limit, it just allows you to make it seem as if you have a bigger/smaller player limit)

Config,yml:
