Hey, guys! Am I TIRED. SDCC knocked me for a loop, but I've still got font-i-ness for ya…

NEW FREE FONT – POTTY MOUTH BB
http://www.blambot.com/fonts.shtml
It seems like every few months someone e-mails me and asks what font do people use when they have a character swear in symbols instead of words. At first I thought they were being silly…then I realized, "Hey! Why isn't there a font JUST for that?" And now there is! POTTY MOUTH is 52 hand-drawn symbols for cursing, cussing, swearing and all out poopy-talk. It even comes with a PDF format reference chart so you can see which key does what.

NEW BLAMBOT.COM COMING SOON
There's a site redesign coming soon! Not a massive shift from what's there now (if it ain't broke, don't fix it), but a streamlined, remodeling that I'm hoping to have done by the next update. It will include an expanding content area, larger overall interface, more efficient font menu, and a less cluttered look.

IF YOU READ THIS FAR, I SALUTE YOU!

I get asked a lot about how graphics folks can send big files without cluttering up their webspace, avoiding e-mail quotas, or without actually having any webspace of their own. Check out YOUSENDIT at the link above. A very handy way to send your art files with no fuss or muss!

See you next month when I've finally recovered from SDCC and website redesigning!
