Okay..

So I hope someone can help me here Smile

For my website I want to make a cool text maker, that is.. someone writes some text and it as an image, but that would be a cool image.. with effects and that..

probably many people has seen these kind of sites on the internet..

So.. my question is this Smile

does anyone know if there's a script or program I can use to do this Smile

?

Or if it would be easier that I learn javascript.. or whatever is needed to do that :S?

PD.. yes.. I'm a noob for this kind of things Razz

well.. to make images out of it, you'd required file I/O and for that u need to use server side scripting.
