Once upon a time, I had an idea on how to overcome the limitations of fonts and what a browser could display. I had come up with one solution where individual letters were created in photoshop - using a highly stylized font - and a function would convert the letters of a blog title to the individual letter images. It worked, but it was messy both on the backend and frontend.

I just implemented a far cleaner solution. By using the GD library in PHP. I'm able to create a graphic on the fly with the blog title using about any TrueType font - in this instance, Bank Gothic, the blog fm font. I'm working on adding reflections to the image to really crank the cool factor.
