Title2ImageBot

Rewrite of original bot by gerenook

Features

Standard Parsing:

Tag the bot in a post with /u/Title2ImageBot. The bot will automatically respond within 30 seconds with the post's title included in the image.

Custom Titles:

Include a custom title in quotes like so:

/u/Title2ImageBot "custom title goes here"

The bot will include the post with the custom title, and still allow users to use other custom titles or the original

Custom Arguments:

Custom arguments can be used like so:

/u/Title2ImageBot "custom title still goes here if needed" !center !dark

!c, !center, !middle will center the text at the top of the image

!d, !dark will invert the title section (white text on black)

!a, !author, !tagauth, !tagauthor will include the submitter's username in the image.

It appears dark mode was an intended feature at some point in the original bot, so thanks to gerenook for some of the code required to make it work

PM parsing:

Bot can be used via PM if its banned in a sub (lots of subs thanks to /r/BotBust banning me twice)

PM a link to a submission. Subject should be "parse"

Running the bot

(Please dont try to run another bot unless /u/Title2ImageBot is shut down for good. Running it on your own sub is fine, but if you want DM me and I can set this one to automatically run on your sub)
