Sorry for Speling mistakes
If You think that
the fonts you would use isn't installed in your visitor's PC atall.
You shold Use php GD
If Your fonts are very common you can use DIVs
But If Your Images Are like The example image of danasoft That you used Here ( Showing IP ) You Can Use DIVs That Doesn't use any special fonts

You do not have absolute control over which font the browser uses or the size it will use. Every font can be mapped to another font without your knowledge or control. As can the size be limited, again, without your knowledge or control.
The only real benefit you get from using text and divs is being more accessible. However the people that would benefit most will see the alt attribute of the image. Plus the div approach would be limited to where you can insert and control HTML.
If you're going to use HTML, make sure that the "image" is actually broken up so it will maintain the wraparound you wish it to have.
