Hello all. I'm working with a "what's playing" on winamp dynamic sig generator.
I can customize my PNG file that the script writes the song string on as a canvas this partially transparent. However, once it writes the information onto this canvas, the PNG loses it's transparency. What it looks like it's using to write the string to the image is imagettfbbox. Should it use imagettftext instead? Would that help?
This code is NOT my code, and I'm just tweaking things here to customize it. Is there something specific I should be looking for, or something I should be putting in the code to keep it transparent?
I will attach a copy of both images just to make sure you understand what I'm talking about.
The first is the template file that the PHP script uses as a canvas.
