Right, what I'm trying to do is to grab data from an RSS feed and add that on an image. In the end I want to create a forum signature where the title of the latest RSS item is displayed on a predefined image.
While I think I might be able to figure out how to put the text on the image, I don't have any clue how I'm supposed to grab the data from the RSS feed - I know it's essentially just an XML file, but there is not an actual XML file on the server, as the feed is handled by WordPress (http://vilkku.org/feed/ is the feed URL).
I tried to find something which already does this, but I couldn't get either of the promising results I found to work, both times I just got a notice saying the image contains errors and cannot be displayed (Here and here). I do have GD installed, so it's not that. If you have the opportunity to test those, and actually get it to work, then please say so and I'll take another look at them.
