Re: Automating the creation of buttons

[Xose Manoel Ramos <nospam@thanx>]

I like quite a lot GIMP (and I have even programed a few scripts with
Scheme).

I also have played a little with GD.pm (create GIF and PNG images
with Perl). GD is not very good for nice graphics, but it works.

I am using it to creade shaped boxes (one of this days I will release
the WML code) and it seems to work fine.

I think the good way of doing things would be creating first a tile 
file in GIMP, and then using this as a background to add characters with
GD. Because GD has TrueType and Type1 extensions so fonts look very
nice.
