Kent Brewster (from the Yahoo Developer Network) has created another cool hack making use of the Flickr photos API: Ransomizr (Kent’s blog entry). Ransomizr makes use of the Flickr “One letter pool”, a collection of photos of single A-Z letters found in the real world. Type in a short message and it will be drawn in ransom-letter style. Kent also includes the HTML code snippet so you can use the result in your blog, MySpace, or wherever.

Mr Schiavone -
We have your Tequila!
(and boy is it good shit!)
Play by our rules and no one gets hurt!
There is a ransom to pay if you want to see said Tequila alive! I believe you know what the ransom is...so don't play games with us!
Do not involve the cops or you can kiss your Tequila good-bye!

If you ever want to see Matt Welt again, you will leave 10000 thousand dollars in unmarked bills at PT desk 2
Look I know what you did to me and I will tell the world unless you keep paying me.
Where is the money you promised? This won't look good if it gets out.
I won't go quietly into the night.
