As you may know now, I am interested in new ascii fonts for my sigs (and vice versa) and I would like to ask you this: When you create a new sig, do you use a printout on acetate and put it up to the screen to use as a template (which is a method mentioned in the FAQ) or do you just create them from scratch? I did the latter for my roman.flf figlet font, which is why it took so long to create, but I imagine it would have been much easier and quicker to use the former method.
