Well... I have scripts set up to do button/tab etc generation of my company's web graphics using all perl. I create the images using Imlib2 and xml templates.
I really doubt I could share the code with you, but I could probably help you along, and even give you my slightly enhanced version of the Imlib2 module. (I use the one from the E source tree, not the one on CPAN). Imlib2 can be a pain in the ass, but it is much more powerful than the GD library, it seems, and even supports gradients and truetype fonts. Though only freetype 1 is supported now, I am using GD2 just for text generation so that I can get FreeType2 and .otf support. Fonts look much smoother. It works very well. As for changing image colors, you could do that with imlib2 as well... though maybe pixel by pixel. The probalem you may run into is if they have anti-aliased text, which will make wholesale color-swapping difficult. -- ___ __ __ __ _ _ ____ _ _ ____ ____ / __)( )( ) /__\( \/ )( ___) ( \( )( ___)(_ _) \__ \ )(__)( /(__)\\ / )__) ) ( )__) )( (___/(______)(__)(__)\/ (____)()(_)\_)(____) (__) The universe is laughing behind your back. _______________________________________________ Boston-pm mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.pm.org/mailman/listinfo/boston-pm
