I have noticed that in some post layouts (actually, only Acmlm's) images are used as fonts. What I mean is, in Acmlm's layout, on the right, his posting stats/ranks are displayed. However, what is used to write out these stats isn't normal text, but it looks like each individual letter is an image. How can this be done? Do you create an image for each letter, then set a variable that links to the image when that character is displayed? Like " if 'a' then img=www.ble.com/images/letter_a.gif" or something like that? I just think its cool and would like to know how its done.  |

| This is made using GD and PHP. But there is a way to make it using separate pics. | |||

Originally posted by Sephiroth7231121 I thought it was done using php, but I was skeptical because I thought this board didn't accept any kind of scripting in post content. Also, Q: What is GD, exactly? I have a vague understanding, I believe it works with php to manipulate image output, but can someone elaborate on its premise?  (edited by Seins on 08-29-04 12:18 AM) |

| The GD Image Library is something that have the uses PHP to create dynamics images. Alot of people can use it in their signatures on any forums that allow you to use images since... well it becomes an image. | |||
