im not quite sure what you are asking for here? You want a number with a dollar sign? Can't you do that with HTML? and I don't understand the number in the background either.

Here is php tutorial that tells you how to create images on the go: http://webmonkey.wired.com/webmonkey/01/21/index4a.html?tw=programming

I have made a text into image script where you can have any text have a graphical output.. but I dont understand what you are talking about...

I think he is referring to the GD Library to output a .php file but do it like <img src="file.php">

First, be sure the dollar sign is BEHIND the number, like this:

$1958729

Then, to add commas...

number_format($number);

Be sure the dollar sign isn't in the variable yet.

Then...

$output_text = "$".$number;

will create the formatted number with the dollar sign. Just stick this into a piece of GD code... and you're ready to go!

Actually, here:

$im = imagecreatefrompng ('image.png');

$width_image = ImageSX($im);
$height_image = ImageSY($im);

//you need to tell GD2 where your fonts reside
//Be sure to make a fonts folder and upload the one(s)
//you want.
putenv('GDFONTPATH=/home/your_user_name/fonts/');
$fontname = 'verdana';
//If using a non-standard font, include the .ttf extention.
$font_size = 10;


  // We have found a font size that will fit
  // Now work out where to put it
  //x is how many pixels across to put text, y is up and down.
  $text_x = 10;
  $text_y = 15;
  $number = number_format($number);
  $black = ImageColorAllocate ($im, 0, 0, 0);
  ImageTTFText ($im, $font_size, 0, $text_x, $text_y, $black, $fontname, "$".$number);
                
 }
  Header ('Content-type: image/png');
  ImagePng ($im);

ImageDestroy ($im);
