Freespace font
on: September 17, 2002, 09:00:34 pm
Hey all! For some odd reason I was inspired to create a typeface, or font, based on the style of the Freespace title. The uppercase is mostly Bank Gothic with a few letters in the style of the FS1 title, but the lowercase font is completely in the style of the FS2 title. It doesn't look too good at 12 point but it gets better as you get bigger. There are also a bunch of little symbols done for the GTA, NTF, HoL and more. Use them for renders, Word Art, screensavers and more! An example of the 3D text screensaver is attached.

Thanks for the font, GE. ;)

Anyone interested in a complete vector duplication of the GTVA / Freespace 2 logo? ;)

Attached is a JPG preview...

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill
