It's possible. I have just been experimenting with it using ImageCreateTrueColor(). See the manual: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.imagecreatetruecolor.php You still have to use ImageColorAllocate() to get a color but you can deallocate it right after usage and you can use as many colors as you like (whereas with normal 256 color images you can't use more than 256). The process didn't noticably slow my 1 Ghz PC down. I made some nice fades in two directions too: http://www.chipdir.nl/adprov/adb/cdb/468_60/08en.png BTW. I made it look like the upper text has been pressed downward into the material and the lower text has been pressed upward out of the material. (Using alpha channel coloring.)
