Photo-real editable text on images

LetterJames.de, despite a ridiculous name, is really really cool. I’ve never seen a web script that produces photo-realistic text on images, like this, before.

It’s a bit slow and has some clunky JavaScript to force you to type in caps (why not do a server side transposition?) but it really is ace.

    Hi, I’m the LetterJames webmaster. Let me just explain two items:
    LetterJames is slow because the computing of the images needs a lot of ressources. And currently we have 20.000 user per day on just not enough computers. Try in the morning, it’s much better then.
    The javascript forces you to nothing. It converts the characters as needed, since some motivs cannot display lowercase letters. And we make an online length calculation to check, whether your text still fits in the line of the motiv. That’s why we do it on the client side.
    So, much fun with LetterJames.
