So I coded this today..

'cause I was extremely bored.

Bit buggy, which you'll notice if you push it to it's limits (I don't advise that though).

Not sure what to do with it now. It's coded in php (using flatfiles and GD2), and AJAX.

What yo think?

It's just using ajax and sending the post data to the server, which just makes an image from it.

I won't go into specifics, but basically just uses the gd library.

Looks nice.. pretty easy though. Only hard part was the ajax. Takes way to long to load

Maybe make the bubble colour customisable?
it'll look good added to a site in a fixed frame.

Its still slow as all the images has to load in the bubble. Its not the bubble thats created.

Actually it was all fairly easy. The cause of the image slowness is my server, which tends to only allow a client to load a few images at a time, which sucks, but that's why.

Working on that eventually. And yeah, I thought about that but the chat bubbles are fairly wide.
