16 - !!UPDATED!! Kevin Drew's handwriting font (for weirdos only)
12 Dec 2007, 21:51
Weeeeeeeeell...this is a little weird thing. Do you know the booklet of Broken Social Scene's eponymous album? "No" is a wrong answer:) It's a yummy real piece of art + there's also a lot of Kevin Drew's handwriting:
I've played with a program you can create/edit fonts with, scanned the booklet, put the letters one by one into the program (it's a bit insane to decide which capital M you like the most for example...erm no, the whole thing is completely freaky:)) and voilá, this is the result.
if you'd like to try it, [url=http://www.[spam nofollow=yes] it
note1>this is a beta version. Some symbols are missing etc. Every fan of Kevin Drew should know the complete thing should be named KevinDrew.tbtf. This is just .ttf. Be patient with it.
note2>it doesn't work well with a small font size
update>symbols added, this is probably the final version
have fun
