I know this site has been down for a while now which is why I decided to have a go at making my own. So go and check it out and let me know if you find any problems/bugs. I know the font isn't perfect but I couldn't get hold of a working version of the font I need (apparently it's called "Photoshop Small" but since I couldn't get it I used one called "Half-Life 2")

Anyway, here's the link :)

:) It works for me, but I see why you need the proper font.

Actually, I'd like a copy of that font myself. It probably comes with the program, does anyone here have Photoshop?

I've got the .fon file for "Photoshop Small" but I need it in a usable format, either as a .ttf or a .gdf. I'm in the process of downloading the free trial for photoshop and will see if I can extract the font from that :)

I ended up having to recreate the font myself, cutting out each letter, resizing, cropping and adding transparency. It looks like it's worth it though. I've also started adding some extra options to the site such as image position, font alignment and an option to upload your own icon :)

The font looks good. I made these, but when I tried to input my whole name it changes to bitmap format.

Bobby, you mean when trying to save it the only option was as a bitmap? I believe that is a problem which occurs when your tempory internet files are full :-/

Yes, that's the only option in saving. Strange though, I just cleaned temporary internet files, and it's still doing thing this. Oh well, no big deal. It's easy to change the background transparent myself. :) Nice work Ross! :D

Must be to do with the file size of the image. I'll see if I can set up something where you can directly upload it to imageshack or maybe so it prompts you to download it. Guess I'll have to do a little bit of reserach on that :-/
