Why Workload Yourselves With Tons Of Images?, Real-time buttons without sweat.

BM is a little add-on to the MS2 CRE Loaded and MS2 that could be configured at the Admin Panel and that allow you to generate all buttons in any language with very little effort and almost ZERO time consumming.

The system can generate buttons in real-time OR create buttons at First Run (script must have write permission to create files and directories). This is error-preventing made.

This system will make possible for webdesigners to create buttons for any new language they install with no effort at all.

And if they decided to change button design they just need to create three (3) new source images.

It requires TTF and GD modules installed. You can choose image output format from GIF, PNG, JPG. It tests if generated output can be GIF (if choosen and due to PHP/GD compatibility issues) and otherwise generates PNG.

Instructions are included in the headers's source code.

That's all folks!

Hence some did find my explanations a bit cumbersome (no to say more) I had in this package a sample file for tests.

No time for better install instructions or whatever for the time being. Code has many comments inside and files are short so I think it will be easy if you dig into the sources.

You may find strange behaviours with no image being returned.

Pay attention if:

1. SQL was loaded into your DB
2. TTF and GD support exist
3. Full path to TTF files is defined

You have inside of one of the files a debug function that may help you understand what the hell may be wrong.

I can assure you that it works because I use it ;)

Soon I will provide a "classy" version of it that will allow you to use it more "drop'n'go".

Enjoy.
