So I have seen that people have made these lists with edit counts and images. As far I have seen people are counting them? So I'v been trying to figure out how to make that automatic... So as I'm not very good with coding but is this close to what where looking for?
I'm guessing that it would be something that people would want?

Found here though here. Sorry for Butchering the format :S!
That table just presents the number of edits a user has made in each namespace. The total is given in the {{User edits}} userbox. While this number does represent a metric of activity, it doesn't really correlate to "contributions". If all your edits are minor corrections, or constant updates to your profile, then the number better represents attendance rather than progress. You can use the {{User new pages}} userbox on your profile to find the number of pages you created (it works up to 500, after that, you have to enter the number yourself). I put a list of pages that you have created on your profile (you can delete it any time, it takes up a lot of space). Other than that, the only way I know to get accurate counts of things like your "images uploaded" is to use Special:Contributions/Terrorblades and sift through the results, which I did one day I was bored at work.
It looks like Special:Log/upload will give you a list of the files a user has uploaded. I don't know if non-admins can access this or not. The list includes any "new versions" you have uploaded, which I probably wouldn't count unless I didn't upload the original...not sure about this.
Thanks Movie, My god there's gonna be allot of counting :S!
Yeah I seam to be able to look there for the results! Thank you! Is the thing I posted useful for any thing?

You are most welcome. The thing you posted is a breakdown of the number of edits you have done. You can get the same thing by clicking the blue number in your {{user edits}} box.
PS, maybe you can figure out why the number in the {{user edits}} box and the number at the top of your profile page are different.
