How to use imagestring() I already know, but is need to choose a image.
In

See this code:

<?
header ("Content-type: image/jpeg");
$imagem = "virus.jpg";
$im     = imagecreatefromjpeg ($imagem);
//$dia    = date("d/m");
$fonte  = getcwd()."/arial.ttf";
$cor = imagecolorallocate($im, 255, 0, 0);

// imagettftext(imagem, tamanho da fonte, angulo, posição x, posição y, cor, fonte, string)
imagettftext ($im, 12,0, 90, 42,$cor, $fonte, "$REMOTE_ADDR");

imagejpeg($im);
imagedestroy($im);
//--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
?>

This code, read a jpg image, and write a text, on it.

To make logos how the logos of the site http://logo54.com is need a code which write a background image with the same size of the words

Easiest thing to do:
1.) Get the string, decode from URL, determine length ([man]strlen/man)
2.) Multiply that by the width of the font you're using ([man]imagefontwidth/man)
3.) Add a padding number (say 10px)
That gives you your total width!!

Now, create an image with [man]imagecreate/man.
THIS IS WHERE THE BACKGROUND COLOR IS:
Allocate the first color of the image with [man]imagecolorallocate/man
Then go from there writing your string to the image and displaying.

Something like:

<?php

$string = urldecode($_GET['lo']);

function ImageFontWidthByFilename($filename)
{
   $handle = @fopen($filename,"r");
   $c_wid = @fread($handle,11);
   @fclose($handle);
   return(ord($c_wid{8})+ord($c_wid{9})+ord($c_wid{10})+ord($c_wid{11}));
}

$font = 'arial';
$fontsize = 22;
putenv('GDFONTPATH='.realpath('.'));

$fwidth = ImageFontWidthByFilename('./arial.ttf');
$width = (strlen($string)*($fwidth+($fontsize-3)))+20; // 20 for 10px padding on each side

$im = imagecreate($width, $fontsize+10);
$black = imagecolorallocate($im, 0,0,0); // Sets BG color
$fontcolor = imagecolorallocate($im, 255, 0xCC, 0); // Sets text color

imagettftext($im, $fontsize, 0, (round(($width-strlen($string))/2)), ($fontsize+5), $fontcolor, $font, $string);

header('Content-Type: image/jpeg');
imagejpeg($im);

?>
