    I've noticed some pixel text on a lot of these sigs, I've downloaded one, but doesn't look the same :censored: . I assume it's from dafont.com, but I don't know what number/letter combination it's called. Anyone know the name?

    Well that depends on your pixels/inch settings. If you want to do your pixelfonts at 8pt, then set the pixels/inch to 72. And yes, Serious and Visitor are the two best. :)

    Then mine isn't looking the same as yours. What 'specific' font do you use? I mean, I know it's Serious/Visitor, but what type of it? There's rounded, bold, etc.....also about the stroke and fill, any details on that?

    Hrmm....yes, I've found it, but it's a .fon file. It won't work in Word or PSP7, but will only work in MSPaint. Does anyone know of a .fon-.ttf converter?

    huh, when you downloaded your font it should automatically be a .ttf and should work in PSP7. also if you use visitor size 10 is best for that particular font.

    Well....I got 2 .ttfs and one .fon, the .ttfs looked ----, but the .fon looks sweet. Is my only option to make a transparent bitmap in MSPaint?
