Shadowing
Perhaps the easiest text effect is shadowing. Shadowing is, quite simply, drawing text at an offset, and then drawing the original text over it. You could use translucent text to create a better shadow effect, but you haven't read about translucent text yet.
<?php
function imagettftextshadow (& $im ,$size ,$angle ,$x ,$y ,& $col , & $shadowcolor ,$fontfile ,$text ,$offsetx ,$offsety)
{
// Draw the shadow
$text1 = imagettftext ($im ,$size ,$angle ,$x +$offsetx ,$y +$offsety ,$shadowcolor ,$fontfile ,$text );
// Draw the original text
$text2 = imagettftext ($im ,$size ,$angle ,$x ,$y ,$col ,$fontfile ,$text );
}
?>
