I am looking at some graphing options, and would like one that has the cleanliness of Sparklines gem but that doesn't require Rmagick. I'd like one with some clear tutorials, too.

What's the problem with Rmagick? I'm just thinking a little more info might help, but because of that restriction I guess my answer probably won't suit you either--I'd say switch to JRuby and use any of the packages available on the jvm.

Rmagick has been too difficult to install with all the dependencies, I am developing on windows 7 64-bit and it looks like the package is 32 bit...and then I deploy to heroku....it seems like alot of overhead.

I've been pleased with Google charts. Doesn't require anything locally.

I use win32ole to get Excel to create graphs. Probably more suitable if you're on a desktop rather than a web server.
