Like subject says, am just wondering what's the simplest/easiest way to implement something like this? It's easy enough to apply overlaid graphical text/string renditions to image resource objects/files using something like imagettftext() function: http://php.net/manual/en/function.imagettftext.php And, only real issue there was figuring out that angle starts off at actual 90 degrees being applied by using 00, and you are actually applying any additional angle values in sort of counter-clockwise direction, so, for example, in order to have text angling downwards at roundabout 45 degrees from horizontal - actually like 135 degrees from true 0 degrees, you need to apply an angle of 315 degrees to the imagettftext() function parameter/argument. Anyway, aside from maybe getting hold of separate .ttf files for the other styles of same fonts, do you have any thoughts regarding applying additional styling to text to be overlaid on image resources?
