Fun with gradients. Pushing the limits of FontStruct with lots of dots.

Comment by Goatmeal 16th january 2011

Wow. Great work, Goatmeal! A handsome rendition on "Alex Murphy Outline". 10/10

Cool Smooth effect.

Comment by djnippa 16th january 2011

Thank you for the kind words, xenophilius and elmoyenique!

With so many dots, I wasn't sure it would be usable. However, it seems OK in MSWord (just slow), which is a tribute to FontStruct's TTF rendering capabilities!

And thanks to you, too, djnippa! Looks like I was replying the same exact time you were!

Amazing!!! This must have taken soooo much time and effort, I can't imagine! SIMPLY SUPERB!!!

@VannessaNettle - Thank you for the kind words! It wasn't _too_ difficult.

I made one gradient pattern, copying-and-pasting the design into blank glyph locations in a new font. Next, I scaled up the original Alex Murphy Outline glyphs to 3×, then copied-and-pasted THOSE over the existing gradients in each location. Lastly, I erased the excess dots and cleaned up around the edges of the glyphs.

TLDR: No need to put dots into each letter. Copy-and-paste the glyphs over a common gradient pattern instead!
