Encode Your Secret Message As Image File
Due to threats related to internet, security has become major part for all users. We always come to such incident in our day to day life, where we have lost or forgot something. Sometimes it can be very risky. Specially when it comes to bank account details or password of any online services. Therefore, many popular online services came up with their security ideas to protect it from hackers.
While googling I came up with a very interesting application, Text To Color. Text to Color works more or less like a stenography tool. What makes it stand apart from a normal stenography technique, however, is that instead of embedding a text file into a user-selected picture, the application generates the image file on its own and lets you encode the text into it. The interface looks very flat and doesn't complicate things with any configuration settings.

Lets see how this works:
The best thing about this application is that it does not requires any installation.
1. Download Text-To-Color from here.
2. Run the application to launch it.
3. Type the important / personal message in the provided textbox and click on Encode button.
4. You will see that your selected text will instantly turn into an image file.
Note: Text to Color also displays a tiny preview of the image as highlighted in the screenshot below.

The only further input required from your side is to hit Save image and type the file name. The application saves the image file as .BMP. You can now transfer this file over any electronic medium or share it with your intended recipient, and no one will ever notice the underlying text should the file ever lands into the wrong hands.
To Decode the image:
1. Run the application to launch it.
2. Click on the "Load Image" button and give the path of that .bmp file (the encrypted one).
3. Now click on the "Decode Image" button.
4. It will ask to save the file in .txt format. Give a name to file and save it.
5 .Open that file to see the secret text. This way you can send and receive secret text in the form of image.
Download Text-To-Color
The app works on Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8. I tried this application and it works just as it says.
Cheers!!!
