local tunaColor = tocolor(255, 0, 0, 255) 
function player () 
    local join = getPlayerName ( source ) 
    local text = source, "#FFFFFF" ..join.. " #0080FFis logged!" 
    dxDrawText( text, 25,166.09, screenWidth, screenHeight, tocolor(0,0,0), 1.2, "default-bold","left")

end 
addEventHandler ( "onPlayerLogin", getRootElement(), player ) 

tocolor wasn't defined, try now.

onPlayerLogin is server-side.

[TAPL]

onPlayerLogin is server-side.

+

dxDrawText need event onClientRender.

A mess here:

local text = source, "#FFFFFF" ..join.. " #0080FFis logged!"

but that's with outputchatbox?

triggerClientEvent

would have to create a client?, because this is server-side.

check wiki examples and it's functions explanation and you will know what you need to do.

GUI and DX functions / events are all client sided. If you need something that is server side only ( getPlayerAccount, setAccountData etc) then use triggerClientEvent from server side, else do the whole script client side.
