Thanks Rod for clarifying that for me.

@ MareroQ,
The letters/font were made using brushes and is not yet available for download as a font yet. You can however get the fully updated brush set that was created to make the letters/font from this link... viewtopic.php?f=12&t=7864&start=40#p102588

Here's a screenshot of the testing of the PHF file that Rod has been working on for me. It still needs a little tweaking/fine-tuning by Rod and then I'll post the PHF file that can be used in Photofonts.

Looks incredible Wallace. Awesome work man, really.

Thanks, it was a lot of work. I can't imagine what it takes to create an actual ttf or otf. Must take 10 times the amount of work that I put into making what I made.

I can't imagine. BTW, what's that Wilber clock? Is that a GIMP add on I don't know about, lol?

Awesome work Wallace!! Congrats!

Funny you should mention the 'Wilber Clock'. It's not a Gimp add-on. It was created by Rod for the program 'ClocX'. If you don't know, ClocX is a free analog clock application. There's a thread somewhere here on Gimp Chat about it.
I created my own Wilber clock design using Rod's ClocX file as a template. It's a nice little program with lots of customizable features.
I have the files needed to display the same Wilber clock on your desktop. You only need to download ClocX and install it. Then place the files in the right place and you'll have a Wilber clock too. There are lots of clock faces that come with the program that are also pretty cool. I've made some 'Batman' clocks and also some Minnesota Vikings clocks for ClocX. The batman clocks can be seen at my devart account as well as some Wilber clocks.

If your interested, here's a link to ClocX below and if you want the files for the Wilber clock let me know....

Thanks Chris, now I have a good idea what you went through to create Orbit Racer. Good thing for me I use a 'Wacom' tablet/pen and not a mouse. I think you know what I mean.

Sure, thanks.

Do you want the ClocX files for the Wilber clock?

Is this in a font downloadable yet? Too many pages read. xD

Not quite yet. PHF first then maybe start the TTF font. That will be grayscale though.

The PHF runs the PHF Font in Photofont Start via Gimp and PSPI. (Wallace screenshot).
The TTF (windows True Type Font), will not be colored as TTF only handles so many shades of gray, and not color bitmap fonts.

What i can do is desaturate the bitmap and keep luminosity. Run the graphics through my program and save as TTF. . Wallace you may be able to do this with Gimp and Inkscape.
1) Open Gimp and desaturate the letters.
2) Open the images in Inkscape and trace them as vector. Be sure to group the traced layers. Save them as fonts in Inkscape. Text>SVG Font Editor.
3) Send the vector font through an online font convertor. http://onlinefontconverter.com/
4) Download and use your font.

I have no clue what you said except no. XD

Yeah, I don't have Gimpanese down pat yet either.

Sorry about that.
Simply put... The PHF file is the colored font (which may be available very soon) But it only runs through PhotoFont Start.
The TTF will come after that.

I've never used Inkscape before, but I know what your saying. Not sure if I want to do all that, thousands of paths your talking about right?

It's a lot of work for sure.
It was just a suggestion though.

It has a real steam punk look to it and I seriously like steam punk. I'll follow this and when you declare it ready I'll grab it in a heartbeat.

I am with you GMS. I am a real Steam Punk nut myself.

Ohhh...I think I got it this time. XD
