My handwriting

It was either that or "You are reading my writing", but that's not the point.  If you haven't seen it yet, and you have a printer and scanner, head on over to fontifier.com.

When you get there, you can download a GIF, print it out, write your letters, scan it, then upload the resultant image.  A script will automatically use the image to generate a Truetype Font based around your handwriting.  It will probably take a few tries tog et it looking right, but the result is amusing, to say the least.

It's funny.  I started using computers due to my horrible awful handwriting.  An now with the miracle of the fontifier, I can use that same horrible handwriting instead of nice neat font.  Sign me up!!

Really?  I started using computers because I thought my Commodore was the greatest thing ever.

"Hey, taxi!"

However, I showed this to a friend who has a scanner and that was pretty much his response: "I don't need a computer to print my horrible handwriting."

Yeah, well, the fact that I could play striker and pac man on my old school "something so old that I was 4 and dont remember the name" was also pretty damn cool.

I'm annoyed you have to pay to use your own handwriting.

Ouch.  They must have received increased traffic as it was free when I (and my room mate and some friends) did it.
