Re: [binarycloud-dev] jpeg generator

I think there's something that might have a bit of what you're talking
about, called vagrant.

There's a copy of vagrant in ext./ I think.

Anyway, VAGRANT is a graphing class, but it uses IMLIB to do the image
operations, and I would be _amazed_ if you couldn't use it to lean th eimlib
functions so you could do text overlays, etc.

I don't know of anything specific, though obviously a quick run through
sourceforge would be good.

if you end up having to build the code, I'd love to have it as part of BC.
There's all kinds of cool things you could do with that as part of a CMS
(photo management app, etc etc etc)
