A thumbnail service — we deliver fast, edge-cached preview images for stock-photo sites and render images on the fly from text.

The docs below cover the /bytext route, which renders an image from arbitrary text.

Try it

/bytext?text=<your text>&w=600&h=400&bg=cccccc&fg=333333&size=48

Parameter	Default	Description
`text`	(required)	Text content. URL-encoded. Use `%0A` for line breaks.
`w`	`600`	Width in pixels (1–4000).
`h`	`400`	Height in pixels (1–4000).
`bg`	`cccccc`	Background color — hex 3/6/8 chars, with or without `#`.
`fg`	`333333`	Text color — hex.
`size`	auto	Font size in px. Leave blank to auto-fit to the canvas.

Returns image/svg+xml — works with <img>, background-image, etc.
Cached at the edge for one year, keyed by full URL — change any parameter and you get a fresh render automatically.
Font is system-ui — rendered with the viewer's system font.
