PHP imagefttext (imagettftext) not displaying anything

I'm almost positive that there is a stupid reason this is not working, but I just can't figure this one out. I'm just trying to print out some text as a graphic with imagettftext, but I can't get the words to display. This is on a GoDaddy server, so I don't control everything, but here are the specs from phpinfo():
  • PHP Version 5.2.14
  • --with-gd' '--with-freetype-dir=/usr' '--with-jpeg-dir=/usr' '--with-png-dir=/usr/bin/libpng-config' '--enable-gd-native-ttf'
  • GD Support enabled
  • GD Version bundled (2.0.34 compatible)
  • FreeType Support enabled
  • FreeType Linkage with freetype
  • FreeType Version 2.2.1
Here is the code I'm using. Nothing fancy or strange.\[code\]$width = 270;$height = 25;$image = imageCreate($width, $height);$white = imageColorAllocate($image, 255, 255, 255);$black = imageColorAllocate($image, 0, 0, 0);$font = 'verdana.ttf';imagefttext($image, 16, 0, 0, 0, $black, $font, 'TESTING TEXT');header("Content-type: image/gif");imageGIF($image);\[/code\]I've tried changing the font name different ways:\[code\]$font = './verdana.ttf';$font = dirname(__FILE__).'/verdana.ttf';\[/code\]I've tried using PNG instead of GIF, I've tried using imagefttext() and imagettftext(), I've tried displaying errors, but it doesn't show any errors, just a blank screen. Any ideas? It's gotta be something so stupid...
