Hi I am building an application that will allow people to enter some text which will then end up appearing along a curved path overlayed on an image. I'm looking for a way to do with CSS or javascript, however I think I will have to end up going to a COM object to build the image dynamically. Does anyone: 1. Know if this can be done in CSS or javascript, and if so how 2. Know of any components or programmatic tools that might be able to do this. I have so far reviewed a demo copy of ImageGlue which could work but costs $300 (ouch!). Thanks for your help. J
You need PHP and GD. Search php.net for imagettftext and you should find several functions for creating rotated text. One of them will do curved text as well but it does require some debugging and recoding to work properly. I already have a script which does this very well but it's proprietary You can see it in action in this application http://www.smileygenerator.us/property The text above the tatoo symbol is curved
