Not only do you eliminate the costly, and useless cast to a double type, but you remove the multiplication and division.

Hey thanks Its a small program, but saving ticks is always welcome. I changed it in my common library as well.

I always enjoy seeing how compactly I can write something in C/C++. Most of it isn't readable, but I've learned a lot in the process.

Well, finally figured it out and got a Times font to work. Made it much nicer. Thanks for the ideas and help!

I hardcoded Y to 85 because I was getting really odd results, but it didn't matter since Y shouldn't change anyways for a given font size. This uses the Windows GD lib, the Windows Freetype Lib, and I used the DEV C++ IDE/gcc compiler.

 
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <gd.h>
#define IMG_DIMENSION 128
#define FONT_SIZE      50.0
#define MAX_TERRAIN   501
int myRandom(int range_min, int range_max)
{return (rand() % ((range_max - range_min) + 1)) + range_min;}

    gdImagePtr im;
    FILE  *fp;
    int   imgcount =0;
    int   imgcolor =0;
    int   black    =0;
    int   white    =0;
    int   numc     =0;
    int   offset   =0;
    int   *err;
    int   brect[8];
    int   x, y     =0;
    char  text[10];
    char  filename[32];
    char  *f = "times.ttf";
 
    srand(time(NULL));
    rand();
 
    im = gdImageCreateTrueColor(IMG_DIMENSION,IMG_DIMENSION); //create image space
    if (!im) {printf("Cannot create image.\n");return 1;}
    black = gdImageColorAllocate(im, 12, 12, 12); //shadow
    white = gdImageColorAllocate(im, 255, 255, 255); //foreground
 
    do { //***Main Loop
      imgcolor = gdImageColorAllocate(im,myRandom(16,64),myRandom(100,222),myRandom(16,64));
      gdImageFilledRectangle(im,0,0,IMG_DIMENSION,IMG_DIMENSION,imgcolor);
      imgcolor = gdImageColorAllocate(im,myRandom(16,222),myRandom(16,222),myRandom(16,222));
      gdImageFilledRectangle(im,13,13,IMG_DIMENSION-14,IMG_DIMENSION-14,imgcolor);
 
      sprintf(text,"%d",imgcount); //change int to string
 
      err = gdImageStringFT(NULL,&brect[0],0,f,FONT_SIZE,0.0,0,0,text); //NULL, we only want to fill brect[]!
      if (err) {printf("Cannot create font image.\n");return 1;}
 
      x = 2+(IMG_DIMENSION-(brect[2]-brect[6]))/2;
      y = 85; //(IMG_DIMENSION-(brect[3]-brect[7]))/2; <---GOOOFY results!
      err = gdImageStringFT(im,&brect[0],black,f,FONT_SIZE,0.0,x,y,text); //shadow
      if (err) {printf("Cannot create font image.\n");return 1;}
      err = gdImageStringFT(im,&brect[0],white,f,FONT_SIZE,0.0,x-1,y-1,text); //white
      if (err) {printf("Cannot create font image.\n");return 1;}
 
      sprintf(filename,"terrain%d.jpg",imgcount);
      fp = fopen(filename, "wb");
      if (!fp) {
               printf("Cannot open terrain%d.jpg for writing.\n",imgcount);
               return 1;
               }
      gdImageJpeg(im, fp, 100);
      fclose(fp);
      imgcount++;
    } while(imgcount < MAX_TERRAIN); //***End Main Loop
 
    gdImageDestroy(im); //destroy image space
 
    printf("done.");
    system("PAUSE");
    return 0;

An idea of what they look like from that code.
