Author How Hard Would This Be?

I am looking for something a little challenging but not too hard for
writing my first PHP script. I also want something useful to me.

I thought of this but how hard would it really be?

example:

Something like that shouldn't be too tricky at all, as with any
application, just break the problem down, you'll need to primarly use the
GD image functions within PHP to create/edit the image, there are many
tutorials, the examples on
http://uk2.php.net/manual/en/function.imagettftext.php will do most of
what you wish (overlaying text) use imagecreatefrom() function to edit an
existing banner background, and just expand as you go.

Good luck.
