PHP Curve Text using GD Library

I need something like below, with the ability to curve text on an arc or a circle. <?php $im = imagecreate (300, 300); imagecolorallocate ($im, 0, 0, 0); #variables $cx = "150"; $cy = "150"; $radius = "40"; $textRadius = "20"; $fillPortion = "0.4"; $font = "/home/local/fonts/arial.ttf"; $fontsize = "20"; $top = "Hello"; $bottom = "Its ME"; $fgcolor = imagecolorallocate ($im, 255, 255, 255); #circle text imagestringftcircle($im, $cx, $cy, $radius, $textRadius, $fillPortion, $font, $fontsize, $top, $bottom, $fgcolor); #Output Image imagepng($im); imagedestroy($im); ?> This code no longer works as php/gd no longer have the imagestringcircle. Although I have the source code for the orginal patch by Boutell.
