I have my mac RSS screensaver set to display the feed from Slashdot and came across this interesting site. FontStruct lets you create your own font online, which can then be exported as a TrueType font for use on your computer. The UI is rather clever; with many scaling options and built-in ability to create hollows, bevels, and rounded edges. Early results can look rather blocky because of it’s grid-based geometry, but given enough time and effort, someone could make some very interesting fonts.
