imageloadfont is needed only if you want to use imagestring with custom font

take a look at my code

PHP Code:

    $str1 = "".$name;
    $str2 = "Level:".$level;
    $str3 = "".$domain;
        $font = 'path/to/your/font.ttf';
        $black = imagecolorallocate($image, 20, 20, 20); 

    imagettftext ($image, 16, 0, 0, $textheight + 18, $black, $font, $str1);
    imagettftext ($image, 16, 0, 0, $textheight + 34, $black, $font, $str2);
    imagettftext ($image, 16, 0, 0, $textheight + 50, $black, $font, $str3); 


you can leave the '$image' untouch, and the number '16' is the font size, the first '0' is the angle, the second '0' is the x coordinates, the '$textheight ...' is the y coordinate, '$black' represent the font color, and '$font' is the font itself and last but not least '$str*' is the text to be loaded

Don't forget to define the variable like '$black' and '$font' before the imagettftext

Also, if you are still wondering how to center the text (using imagestring), read this
