Tom, thank you. You inspired me, so I made a 9-segment font (to surpass it, just kidding), little less classic, a bit more rounded.

@roycaruso . That is a brilliant idea . Especially concentrating on Monospaced with ONES that don’t Dance . I personally think that would make a great WIKI . I am concerned that we are Hijacking Toms Tutorial . But Hey I know he is Not going to object . I don’t think there is a Font topic . There are some about ones that don’t work . These guys that Make Fonts are Brilliant .

Thanks! Yes, I am definitely all for non-dancing 1’s! Sorry @tom.vannes if we are hijacking but your face is so awesome it has inspired too many spin off discussions! I have never made a proper font though, just 0-9 in Photoshop for opacity-shifted times in Facer. Wouldn’t even know where to start making a proper font set. All for watching the font-off from the sidelines and learning what I can though

No worries, I prepared all the material and posted it at once, so it is at the top.
We’re stuck in this community format, which is not ideal for tutorials…

We have got WiKi but in my head I am not sure if it would be that useful in this case . The one we made for the Banned Words is not exactly a roaring success .
