- Here's some useless info on the BikyBold font!
-
-
- What you now have is a TrueType font of someones handwriting. (Mine) Is
- that
- stupid or what? I decided that I would start creating all sorts of silly
- fonts
- 'cause I can't create anything else on my Mac at this point. I couldn't
- write
- a line of code if you put a gun to my head and forced me.
-
- Anyway, I don't know if anyone would even WANT a font of my handwriting, but
- I'm
- uploading it anyway. I've started with my own chicken-scratch because it
- would
- be completely stupid and no one else would possibly have a font like it.
- (Just
- think, now you can write a ransom note and pin it on me!) I originally
- wanted
- to be able to write personal, hand-written letters to all my friends and
- still
- have the convenience of mail-merge.
-
- The font is of an all caps nature. (That's how I write, what can I say?) It
- looks like lettering done with a flair pen. ('cause that's what I
- used...amazing!
- I suppose I should've called it "BikyScript", but that doesn't sound as
- nice.)
- It's a complete character set with all the upper-case doo-hickeys. Check out
-
- the bracket keys, I've included all sorts of weird characters there so when
- you
- want to censore yourself, you can. The font doesn't look too great
- on-screen,
- but wait until you print it out to see what you think.
-
- For you people who want to know, here's what I used to create this font. I
- scanned my handwriting in PhotoShop 1.0.7, outlined it with Adobe Streamline,
-
- tweaked it with Aldus Freehand 3.0, then assembled it with FontMonger.
-
- O.K., here's the part where I pretend it's shareware and ask you to send me
- five bucks. Well don't. (Or more like, WHO WOULD?!) Actually, I should
- apologize to YOU for getting you to take the time to download this. Now just
-
- dump all this into the trash and empty it. (That's what you're gonna do?
- Right?) Alright, if you ARE gonna keep it, you're gonna have to admit it to
- me by sending me some mail telling me that you are doing so and the reason
- why.
-
- Send me E-mail or write to this address: (I'd do the E-mail)
