Not quite mentally at the Doomsday scenario with AI theories but the Snake Plissken character played by Kurt Russell in the 80s sci-fi films has crossed my mind.

It was Brotherhood Of Man. Far too early to be Bucks Fizz.

Inspired by Rod's recent family news and using my own version of a recent custom font DIY guide.

What I thought this was all the time.

Like the custom font and the words very much - great pairing.
I seem to vaguely remember that you once experimented with a plug-in that would use variations of each letter form?

Thank you Skinnyhouse. It's really attractive your text layout :jumpclap

Thank you Issa - much appreciated.
Perhaps I should post more of my use of custom fonts. Believe it or not there are some amongst us who detest custom fonts in all their myriad forms!

Thought I would put one of Alan's custom fonts to use.
It seemed a perfect match for this photograph of the Sex Pistols in Norway 1977 (Wikipedia Commons).
