i want to align the text generated on the image to the center of the image. for the moment, i dont know if it is possible to align it. below is the code.
$im = @imagecreatefromjpeg('poloroid.jpg');
// Create some colors
$white = imagecolorallocate($im, 255, 255, 255);
$grey = imagecolorallocate($im, 128, 128, 128);
$black = imagecolorallocate($im, 0, 0, 0);
//imagefilledrectangle($im, 0, 0, 399, 29, $white);
// The text to draw
//$text = 'John...';
$fbid = $_POST["id"];
$text = $_POST["want"];
$fb_email =$_POST["email"];
$fb_name=$_POST["name"];
$uploads_dir = 'uploaded_files/';
// Replace path by your own font path
$font = 'verdana.ttf';
//image file name
//$name ="$fbid.png";
$name = $uploads_dir.$fbid.".png"; //this saves the image inside uploaded_files folder
// Add some shadow to the text
imagettftext($im, 20, 0, 25, 126, $grey, $font, $text);
// Add the text
imagettftext($im, 20, 0, 25, 125, $black, $font, $text);
// Using imagepng() results in clearer text compared with imagejpeg()
//imagepng($im);
imagepng($im,$name,9);
imagedestroy($im);
thanks for the help guys.
