This plugin provides two new template tags to replace plain text with
styled text images using TrueType fonts.
This is primarily a reworking of the Image Headlines
plugin. Of course, that was a reworking of another plugin by Joel
Bennett. The main changes over Brian’s plugin are (a) a richer admin
interface, (b) the ability to predefine multiple image text styles,
and (c) using template tags instead of depending on arguments to
the_title.
Anything that works really well probably came from Brian’s code.
Anything screwed up is probably my fault.
Fonts
I have included a few fonts to get you started. First is Warp 1 by
Alex Gollner. This is the one included with Image Headlines, so it
seemed like a good one to include. See more at Alex’s Website.
Next are the two Qlassik fonts by Dimitri Castrique. His site is
currently in disrepair, but the fonts are quite nice. You may be able
to find out more at his currently dead website.
The last is New Order Movement by Peter Saville. This is a
nice art deco headline font.
