Turing 0.0.7 && cry for help

Ruby
21

Hi Mathew, I am using the turing package to try and create captcha
images, i use the code:

ti = Turing::Image.new(:width => 280, :height => 115)
ti.generate(File.join(Dir.getwd, ‘a.jpg’), “randomword”)

The image is generated fine, but the text is unreadably small.

What am i doing wrong? the text being rendered is very very small.
I have posted an example on www.reapfuels.co.uk,

Maybe explaining what you are trying to do would help?

Hence, a better subject line would be: “Captcha generated by Turing
package is
unreadably small” which might catch the attention of people who can
help.
