Posterbuilder is a little [C#] class library for creating dynamic images (e.g. posters) based on a given template.
As an example I have a little website toepoke.co.uk for organising 5-a-side football matches. I use the poster builder to allow the user to download a poster which they can put up at work asking people in they'd like to play as well.
Where Posterbuilder comes in is we take a template image with the site branding, logo, etc and add text and images that are appropriate to the end-user account, giving a personalised poster.

In this instance we have added:
- Some text saying telling the reader where and how often the game takes place.
- A unique URL to the sign-up page of the game
- A quick-response code which also navigates to the sign-up page of the game (useful for people with compatible mobile phones)
- A map showing where the game is played.
The above example and two further examples are included with the source code. Sadly I can't provide an on-line demo at this time.
Feel free to dig straight into the source code or look through the accompanying documentation.
