    Anyone mentioning font-based bans should be banned for not letting people have other ideas (But indeed it is horrible)

    Actually, I was going to include something that would abort the script if comic sans or papyrus was selected as the font. :)

     

    EDIT: Wow, you posted that while I was busy typing my post...

     

    Also...I will probably be making a GIF recorder with gd when I get home...

    meh, working with gd is no fun. make your own ttf and gif parser with lzma decoding and anti-aliasing

    I'm still working out the encoding of a .TTF. Besides, this can load fonts directly from the installed font directory, which varies system to system.

    I do agree with you though, it isn't that great of a script...but what matters is that it can draw text well, which it can.

    :/ What's wrong with the text it draws?

    Did you follow the instructions? There's a link at the top of the page that includes DLLs to place in your TPT folder. Of all the people to make that mistake, I would have expected you at least to know where a DLL goes to load a library.
