[RELEASE] Habbo Text Generator

[Dentafrice]

A friend of mine was asking how to do this earlier today.. so I thought I would give it a try.

No, this isn't one of those that just display the images lined up side by side.. this actually generates the image.

The image is also transparent. Here is an example:

Hai, Mr. Mingle.

Nice release, code is excellent as usual.

*jealous*

Good stuff Caleb, May see this on the Habbox site in a short while.

[Dentafrice]

Awesome!

You can also make your own fonts for it.. ignore the badly positioned and ugly text.. that was my fault on photoshop.

How do you add your custom fonts?
I'm a bit confused as to why you can't type what font you want and then choose font style...?

[Dentafrice]

How do you add your custom fonts?

You have to create each letter one by one and save them in a directory..

Yeah I figured that much out

Make it like a normal font gen where you type your font, then choose the font style and click generate, then it shows up on page.

There are font previews and you click on them for the style you choose

[Dentafrice]

I can't be bothered to do that. Someone can if they want. This is just the coding for it

I could do this if more details could be specified of what needs adding.

We'll see later today. Shouldn't be too hard.
