Hello all

I have one problem with gtext.

Everything works fine, the image is generated to the right folder, font is ok, but image is not displayed on the site.

this is how i call it:
```
<h1>
<a href="#"><img src="[[gtext? &font=`calibrib.ttf` &fontsize=`40` &color=`#000000` &bgcolor=`#ffffff` &text=`Graphical Text Test`]]" alt="" /></a>
</h1>
```
I tried to change it to:
```
<h1>
<a href="#"><img src="<img src='/assets/images/gtext/gtext_a542bd0f14b2b7db79295483c92fef1c.gif'/>" alt="" /></a>
</h1>
```
but it did not work....

what can be the problem?

thank you...

When you use the first call and view the page HTML source, what does it show as the image path? does it point to correct location? you could try putting [(base_url)] before the snippetcall if you use friendly alias paths..
