Creating images from user input

Hi Guys,

A company i'm working with wants to be able to have a custom product option on their site. It's a rubber stamp so they want to let customers input 4 lines of text, choose fonts, choose normal, bold, italic, etc and alignment options. You'd then click a button and the preview of the stamp appears below. Very nice. I've found a really good example of this at:

They use flash to create their preview (not sure how?) but I don't mind how I do this. Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks

Will

If you check out http://www.flashkit.com you might be able to find some tutorials or something that will help you out a little more than I can.

Flash's action script can interact with CGI scripts/PHP scripts along with image manipulation server side tools like ImageMagick to create such task.
