This utility was developed to allow Web designers to display dynamic content using the Sigmund™ typeface, negating the tedious task of creating static images during production. The current release contains the 5-pixel version of the typeface. Future releases will contain the 6- and 7-pixel versions currently under development.
Instructions
This utility uses a URL encoded <IMG> tag that instructs our webserver to plot the dynamic image. The string sent in the tag can determine type size, kerning, and color. Once you see how the string is formatted, it should be quite easy to build your own custom image requests.
