Is aneorexia a eating disorder or is it a eye disorder?

Is the sky really blue?

Do all girls have moustaches? And is it natural?

If I ripped off my leg would I be any shorter?

Where are all the mods at in this forum? I only see about half of them?

Those are some of the questions I thinkabout why I am making skins and AVS presets. If you have any more questions or answers can you please post them here? This can be the question thread...

Mr Jones 5th July 2001 00:43

A: 42 (see Hitch-hikers Guide to the Galaxy if you don't believe me)

My big question this week was 'what font do they use on (British) road signs?' (sad but I'm a graphic designer and I needed to know for a project). The answer is 'Transport'. Probably could've guessed that but had to email the Department of Environment, Transport & Regions. Quick response though, they must be bored as well.

Also, excuse me if it's obvious but, what does a llama have to do with an MP3 player?:confused:

e-blackadder 5th July 2001 01:45

grrrrrrrrrrrrrr
 
all that trouble I went to making the HHGTTG skin, and I forgot to put the number "42" in it somewhere. sheeeesh :(

If nothing sticks to teflon, what keeps teflon in the pan?

If your mom was your dad, then who was her daughter?

If your favorite color is clear, where do you buy clear clothes? And would you be allowed to wear these clear clothes in public?

If I switched the keys around on my keyboad would I still be able to type the same?

Where is the easter egg on winamp?

If your a grown man and you went into the girls bathroom at a elementary school what would the principle do?

Give you some condomns?
Call the police?
Go in with you?

THEMike 5th July 2001 07:06

Is this the right forum for this crap?

No.

Go put it elsewhere :)

Doggy Dog 5th July 2001 10:02

No really, where's Zeruel...., and Princess Dagger

ampburner 5th July 2001 13:53

I think Princess Dagger lost interest :( ...but Zeruel?

skinme! 5th July 2001 17:21

On the subject on fonts (and off the subject of skins, so shoot me), you said the British road signs use a font called transport. Where do you get it? Where do you guys look to get interesting fonts? I am looking to enlarge my font collection.

flatmatt 5th July 2001 18:40

Yeah, where is Zeruel? Last I remember of him, he commented on the music playing in the screenshot of my Meddling Kids skin.

dekt 5th July 2001 19:21

Fonts
 
The Transport font is from a fairly amateurish paysite called 'instant-art'. The guy who deals with the fonts is on holiday so I can't get it even though I need it for a job.:mad:

A good place to start looking for fonts is this page at about.com (some of the links are dodgy but most of the sites are good, especially Chank Fonts). Other good sites are ShyFonts and Acid Fonts. Apologies if some of these are Mac only - I've been to so many that I forget. And fonts can be an important part of skin design so I don't think there's any reason to bring out the firing squad skinme!:)

PS- I dont know where Zeruel is.

ampburner 5th July 2001 20:44

http://eye.box.sk >>> browse the fonts archive....some really nice ones there.

skinme! 5th July 2001 21:03

coool.... never underestimate the box.sk family of sites

simon snowflake 5th July 2001 22:41

yeah, box.sk is cool.
but what i really need. Is one huge zip/rar file with like a overdose of fonts. (anyone?)

ampburner 5th July 2001 22:44

Get the full version of Wordperfect or Word..or both! They come with quite a few fonts :)

simon snowflake 5th July 2001 22:49

already have those, and some more that came with a CD-Rom i got with my printer.
But i want to have files whit have about 250 or more fonts.

Namelessv1 6th July 2001 00:09

Maybe Zeruel got sick of all the crap thats happening in the skin database and just left.

The Only Lynx 6th July 2001 07:59

skinme! 6th July 2001 17:25

Mr Bo. I got some strange note from you. So I deleted it. Strange ;)

Mr. Bojanglez 6th July 2001 18:47

wrong forum but ok
 
hey kinwashi do you know how to make an animated volume and balance bar script?

And could I make it so that the spectrum analyzer thingy and the avs show up in the same window?

Whats the download site for the alphas again?

Hey it said share your skin love, not share your wa2 skin love.

kinwashi 6th July 2001 18:54

as for the scripting/technical part of winamp3, you're better off asking someone in the wa3 forums, becuase I really don't know anything about that :D RhinoTrip has helped me out with all the scripts in wa3blue. But he has some scripts you can download on his website, http://www.stefanweb.com/wa3/

Huehuetenango 6th July 2001 19:30

why does water, a clear liquid, make thing's it gets on DARKER?????
why did all my friends go to other countries this summer and abandon me?

Mr_Tough_Guy 6th July 2001 23:42

does anyone of you guys by any chance have the font of the Got Milk? adds, I've been looking for them for a while, and hav'nt been able to find them so far.

dekt 7th July 2001 14:06

Tough_guy...
 
Did you get an email asking you do do a take-off of 'got milk' for a skin of a dodgy website? Just wondering cause I did.

Think I may have the font somewhere (no promises though) but I've got about 3000+ so give me some time to trace it. By the way if anyone knows where to get some kind of cataloging program to do samples of fonts I'd be really grateful (ATM isn't really up to it).

garetjax 7th July 2001 18:02

hey, bo
 
did you get a look @ my recent addition to winamp.com skins?

Just curious...

Mr. Bojanglez 7th July 2001 18:22

hmmm hmm number 200
 
can you believe I got 200 posts and I'm still here?


Garetjax yea I seen it, but of course I never did really like your style....

I know my wa2 skins suck thats why I hardly work on them anymore.

Where's that little greedmonkey at anyway?

Why are the sig guidelines voluntary yet I have to follow them?

Does anyone know where to get the font they use on playboy magnazines?

Mr Jones 7th July 2001 18:30

Sig guidelines are for everybody to follow,just so happens yours happens to be bigger than recommended, they are also there to make the forums a better place, didn't you say something about not using the sig in every post? :)

pukkaboy 7th July 2001 18:58

do you think my sig is too big?

Mr Jones 7th July 2001 19:03

Nope :), but I have always wondered about the croquet reference lol, care to elaborate for me ????

pukkaboy 7th July 2001 19:29

dunno? just sounds funny:)

Why did they shut down napster when you can still get mp3s easily on the net?

Why do your knuckles only bend one way?

What is the opposite of opposite?

how can bumble bees fly?

nope just trying to find it cause I want to do a transformers, Got Energon? spoof on it for a friend. actually has nothing to do with skinning, but you guys were all talking about fonts anway so I figured I might give it a shot.

skinme! 8th July 2001 14:37

Why does it goes Love, 15, 30, 40?

dekt 8th July 2001 16:49

Sorry...
 
Can't find it. Closest match is a font called 'Institution' (as shown below) but I only have it for mac. Probably no good for you unless you have a font convertor.

Don't know the name of the proper 'got milk' font either but why not just email them and ask what it is? Don't mention what you want it for just say not knowing what it is is driving you mad and can they help you out. I'd like to know what it is too and it'll be much easier to track down once you know the name (I may even have it after all).

Doggy Dog 8th July 2001 18:37

try to make the font yourself.

Mr_Tough_Guy 9th July 2001 00:09

thanx for trying anyway, actually I've found a font that looks like it, might even be the actual font; CgPhenixAmerican, now all I need is to find the right pic, the one I was planning on using is too small to draw in the milk mustaches. but trying to find a decent transformer pic is even harder the trying to find the font.
Anyway this is how it turned out so far:
