TallTweets uses the HTML2Canvas library to convert text into PNG images. The generated images is converted into base64 (data URI) which is then sent to the server over a HTTP POST request for uploading to twitter.

Unlike the screenshots tool that performs the screen capture on the server side using a headless browser, here the image is generated directly in the user’s browser.
