How can I create a glow effect around text with fpimage?

Speaking purely from a graphics editor point of view like GIMP. You would need something like a Gaussian Blur filter to start, then overload the original text over it again. But then, there are many ways in any image editing program to create a glow effect. It's all about how you want the final result to look.

Sorry, I know this doesn't help your fpimage question much. :-(

Thanks. I will write a function.

You might want to take a look at AGG-Pas as well. It's the pascal implementation of the C AGG library. It's pretty impressive in features with a large selection of demos.
