Description
So pretty much, I've ALWAYS wanted to be able to make my own font. So I downloaded Font Creator 5.5 and scanned in some of my handwriting... 5 hours later I have my own font.This took a really long time to do DDD:

Its a bit more complicated than that.
You have to download it to somewhere in your C: drive and then you have to install it as a font.

Why did it take so long? I've been wanting to make my own font but haven't known how....

Basically, it takes a long time because what I did was scan in my own handwriting, and then blowing it up to 400%. Then I traced every letter with my tablet, which in itself doesn't take very long. But then in order to import the letter you have to copy and paste it on its own file and save it as a JPG. Then you have to import the image on the file, and then you have to tweak things like size, and kerning
Its not difficult, but 26 letters times 2 (for upper and lower case) is 52... and then the symbols which is about.. 30. That adds up to 82 characters: quiiiite a bit of time. X3

Awww. I wanted to have a font of my handwriting... btu i don't have a tablet... and i have really bad control when it comes to the mouse I might just have to be reeeeeeally patient...
BTW I have used this font on my most recent deviation, and yes i've credited you
