Text as Image
Presenting my new
Let’s start with this URL:
http://antrix.net/text/?text=hello world
That returns an image:
It’s too dull, I think.
http://antrix.net/text/?text=hello world&fgcolor=white
Or maybe the same color as the titles on this blog.
http://antrix.net/text/?text=hello world&fgcolor=A4C130
How about swapping the colors?!
http://antrix.net/text/?text=hello world&fgcolor=160B35&bgcolor=A4C130
Or simply:
http://antrix.net/text/?text=hello world&fgcolor=transparent&bgcolor=A4C130
Back to basics, but a less boring font:
http://antrix.net/text/?text=hello world&font=georgia
A bigger size really brings out the serifs!
http://antrix.net/text/?text=hello world&font=georgia&size=48
But perhaps you have a taste for the tiny?
http://antrix.net/text/?text=hello world&font=silk&size=8&fgcolor=teal
Oops!! The font is called Silkscreen!
http://antrix.net/text/?text=hello world&font=silkscreen&size=8&fgcolor=teal
And just so you don’t make a mistake like that with all those options, there’s a nice Web 1.0 form to help you out!
Have fun!
PS: This is yet another web.py hack of mine.
