PilotHandwriting Turns Your Handwriting into a Font

PilotHandwriting is a free web service that turns your handwriting into a font that you can use to send out personalized emails. The site—a product of the Pilot pen company—is similar to previously mentioned YourFonts , and the process is likewise similar: You print out a template, write the corresponding letters in each box, and then upload your filled out template back to the site (the video above demonstrates the process). PilotHandwriting is a touch more user-friendly than YourFonts, and it features several different methods of uploading your handwriting back to the site (including a really smart built-in webcam capture tool, a scanner, or a regular digital camera). You can even test your font or correct small imperfections. The extremely frustrating part: PilotHandwriting doesn't allow you to download these fonts.

Have you ever wanted to create an authentic looking Andy Warhol silkscreen?

In the studio he called The Factory, Warhol took an assembly-line approach to his high-contrast, silkscreens and produced art as a mass consumable, like a t-shirt or a pack of gum. It’s not surprising that his art is still popular today, and there are lots of one-click Warhol solutions.

dekePod Episode 013: The Mating Habits of the Pen Tool - O'Reill

http://digitalmedia.oreilly.com/2009/04/02/dekepod-pen-tool.html

Adobe's landmark pen tool defined an industry. But to the uninitiated, its reliance on anchor points and control handles makes it as approachable as first-year algebra. Until you see it's nothing more than a mating ritual: The points are boys and the handles are girls. Once you get that, it all falls into place.

Using the "Pen Tool" is one of the features I adore the most, when it comes to Adobe Photoshop. Along with Photoshop, I also have an interest in learning more about Inkscape. by waellerbe Jun 23
