I'm the author of Gnome15, and was just doing some vanity searching and came across this post.

Love the hypno-effect, I think I have a headache now though. And the text problem probably isn't PEBCAC ;) There is a bug with that call, mainly when you supply a width/height. This is fixed in 0.8.2 which is building now. To draw some text, you would do something like :-

$page->Text("Hypnotoad - Our Lord And Master", 50, 0, 220, 240, "center,center,wrapword");

That would draw text in a 220x240 box located at x=50,y=0, with the text wrapped at word boundaries, vertically and horizontally centered.

You can also change the font :-

$page->SetFont("24", "Sans", "normal", "normal");

It's great to see someone else using the API and if you've got any other suggestions to improve it, please feel free :)
