Are you sure you don't want f.write(img) ?

no this seems to work lol :)

import ImageFont, ImageDraw, Image

def gen(text):
image_file = "test.jpg"
image = Image.open(image_file)
font = "font.ttf"
draw = ImageDraw.Draw(image)
font = ImageFont.truetype(font, 12)
draw.text((1, 1), text,font=font)
image.save("temp.jpg")

if __name__ == "__main__":
import random
print gen(str(random.randint(0,1000)))

The next problem would be that i need this to work <img
src=randomtext.py/in cherrypy because if two persons login at the
same time the first user get to see the second user textimage DOH!
