So, I generated an image with ImageMagick to display it. + +After cross-referencing some documentation on how to [handle text][magick-text] and [warp the image][magick-warp], I figured out how to do what I wanted. I decided to put it in [my website's Makefile][website-makefile] to make it easier to execute. + +...That's pretty much it.
