I give up. I had made the String To Image script so people could have a little more interesting graphics, but since people are not cooperating, I'm completely changing the rules. This is driving me crazy with everyone suggesting ways of cheating. You have to use pygame.draw only. If I find someone who is drawing from any type of string, he/she will be disqualified. Compression of images is not allowed, and if I find that the competitor will be disqualified.
Yeah, accusing us of cheating is pretty obnoxious.
I wasn't trying to figure a workaround, I just didn't understand your rules, which seemed pretty arbitrary. In my opinion, you should've either restricted it to only pygame.draw or allowed any kind of image string. Since you did that, I'm fine. I'm not sure I really want to enter a competition where the moderator can't even be polite to prospective entrants.
