If so, where can I get it? Thanx I just made that style of lettering a few days ago for my sig, and then for the poison thing. As far as I know, nobody has made a Figlet font of it yet.

I know I have not. I can create it with existing fonts... echo Tony | figlet -c -f alligator2 | tr '\:+\#' '\@\!\:' @@@@@@@@@@@ @@@@@@@@ @@@@ @@@ @@@ @@@ @!@ @!@ @!@ @!@!@ @!@ @!@ @!@ !@! !@! !@! @!@!@! !@! !@! !@! !:! !:! !@! !:! !@! !:! !:!!@ !:! !:! !:! !:! !:!:!: !:! :!: :!: :!: :!: :!:!: :!: ::: :::::::: ::: :::: ::: echo Tony | figlet -c -f alligator | tr '\:+\#' '\@\!\:' @@@@@@@@@@@ @@@@@@@@ @@@@ @@@ @@@ @@@ @!@ @!@ @!@ @!@!@ @!@ @!@ @!@ !@! !@! !@! @!@!@! !@! !@! !@! !:! !:! !@! !:! !@! !:! !:!!@ !:! !:! !:! !:! !:!:!: !:! :!: :!: :!: :!: :!:!: :!: ::: :::::::: ::: :::: ::: Hmm, not as good at the original, but close, very close. It's a very nice font though. It would be easy to create this font from alligator2.flf by piping the actual font file through tr, then just touching up the result a bit to get that neat fade-out effect: cat alligator.flf | tr '\:+\#' '\@\!\:' > poison.flf The new font deserves to be called poison.flf. Any takers? (I haven't got the time right now)-: Sheez, I've done most of the hard work already! Come on Bob, how about you? :-) Cheers Tony ___________________________________________________ / _\ \ ( /@) These words of wisdom have been presented by: ) ` \_/________________________________________________/ \ .
