Description:
------------
First off, I'm not sure what verison of PHP our servers use.  My hosting service is IpowerWeb.com

When I use imagettftext to write onto an image, it works fine, unless I allocate the color of 0,0,0.  Even 1,1,1 works just fine.

When I write to a complete black background the text shows up as rectangles, not the actual letters.  The rectangles look like bounding boxes because they take the size of the actual letter its trying to print.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
	$im_header = imagecreatetruecolor( 440, 83);
	$white = imagecolorallocate($im_header, 255, 255, 255);
	$black = imagecolorallocate($im_header, 0, 0, 0);
	imagefill($im_header,0,0,$black);
	imagecolortransparent($im_header, $black);
	
	imagettftext($im_header, 32, 0, 0, 42, $white, "fonts/verdana.TTF", "test");
	
	imagejpeg($im_header);
?>
