Convert text into a png image using GD without using [WikiPluginCached|Help:WikiPlugin].
The images are stored in a private <PHPWIKI_DIR>/images/<LANG> subdirectory instead, 
which are not timestamp checked at all. Delete the .png file(s) if you change anything.

This is a really simple and stupid plugin, which might need some work.

! Usage
<verbatim>
  <?plugin text2png text="some text" ?>
</verbatim>

! Arguments

text:
  some text to display
lang:
  language subdirectory
_force:
  set to 1 to recreate the image
fontsize:
  18. with GD1 it's the pixelsize, with GD2 the pointsize
with_shadow:
  1
fontcolor:
  #000000
shadowcolor:
  #AFAFAF
backcolor:
  #ffffff


! Configurable Options

See the sourcecode. You'd probably need to adjust $ttfont and text2png_debug.

! Example

<verbatim>
<?plugin text2png text='Hello WikiWorld!' ?>
</verbatim>
would produce:
<?plugin text2png text='Hello WikiWorld!' ?>
