<?php
$im = imagecreate(100, 100);
$string = 'Note that the first letter is a N';
$bg = imagecolorallocate($im, 255, 255, 255);
$black = imagecolorallocate($im, 0, 0, 0);
// prints a black "Z" on a white background
imagecharup($im, 3, 10, 10, $string, $black);
header('Content-type: image/png');
imagepng($im);
?>
The above example will output
something similar to:
Load balance : Server 01
