What this script does it allow the user to enter their text into a box, and when they click submit, it sends the information via Ajax to a server side script that processes the information and creates an animated gif from the information. The server side script (written in PHP) then sends back the location of the image, and the client side JavaScript updates the page with the image.
It doesn't have any features really, but it should pretty easy to add some.
So I've created a script which takes some user input, and lets them search for all of the words in either the TWL06 or SOWPODS dictionary for words which match their input.
Some features:
1. The order that the user enters the letters doesn't matter.
2. The user can specify the exact location of some of the letters in the word
3. The user can use up to two wildcards in the letters (to represent blanks).
So this is the perspective transformation from before, this time edited to allow the script to run through every image file with the same extension and then save it in a subdirectory called 'temp'. This script is designed to run on Windows, to fix it for Linux, find the \\ (double backslashes) and replace them with / (1 forward slash).
This is a script-fu to do a perspective transformation of an image. As usual, this needs to be saved as text with the .scm extension in your Gimp scripts folder. You may have to a 'Refresh Scripts' to get it to show up.
So I ventured into Scheme today (or a variant of it anyway) and started learning how to create scripts to control the behavior of Gimp, the open source image editor. The script I created today takes an image, and creates 360 rotations of the image offset by 1 degree each and saves each of them in the current folder (I couldn't work out how to change folders in Script-fu, so oh well, you'll have to move the images elsewhere).
I've turned my most popular script into a Google Gadget. The link to it is:

I'm adding it to the directory, and hopefully it will direct some traffic to this site.
So I've noticed some traffic to here from various sources, so I guess I should put the instructions for the Movable Type Equation plugin here.
Basically you need to create a file called 'textags.pl' in some text editor (like Notepad for Windows) and put the text below into it.
You then upload this code to your plugins directory of your movable type website and it will work, however, there is an additional step which you may want to take. You may notice a reference in the code to a url, and this is the crux of the plugin.
To create equations with Movable type, you need 2 files uploaded to your Movable Type site.
1. The 'textags.pl' file (modified from QuickCode created by Crys Clouse) in a folder called 'TexTags' in your plugins directory.
2. A version of 'mimetex.cgi' (or the equivalent) appropriate for your server type. For different versions of this file, see http://download.moodle.org/mimetex/
