Cliff:

Try the following to test stuff:

<?php
Header ("Content-type: image/gif");
$im = imagecreate (150, 150);
$background = ImageColorAllocate ($im, 238, 238, 238);
$text_color = ImageColorAllocate ($im, 00, 51, 102);	//#036 00 33 66 HEX
ImageTTFText ($im, 20, 45, 30, 130, $text_color, "arial.ttf",
"Hello World...");
ImageGif ($im);
ImageDestroy ($im);
?>

You can get arial.tiff (along with other fonts) at:
