hey shock nice font m8! just 1 slight glitch if you've noticed no 1 pixel space between m and n,
also between w and x!

great work just wonderd if you'd noticed.

ps i do realise may have been pixel restraints that forced this!

i just tried to convert this to binary using my blitz program it basically loads the font in as an anim image strip and i cant get to the z as i think there must be one or two pixels out on the strip.

Mmm, sorry Nino, I don't have Blitz here, but I'd suggest that maybe you're giving the wrong width for the letters?

Nb, if you're still stuck I will try on the other computer (which does have blitz) later.

im definitly stuck!  :)

im trying a width and height of 31 and it loads the 58 chars but when i try and display the 58th one or the z its giving me image frame out of range?

im shure i have the width and height correct as if i change it to any other -1+1 the displayed font messes up

No problem Nino. I just had a thought though.
When I used this font, I made the width of the total image divisible by 8, that might be what is confusing loadanimimage. There would be a few pixels left over at the end.

I can't see that breaking it, but it might have.
