Comic Sans MS

Does anyone have a full set of Comic Sans MS done in a weaving pattern? Highest design thread should be no more than 20. If you are willing to share that woulo be great, if not, I will be glad to pay a reasonable price to obtain one. I would need this fairly quickly as I need it for a Christmas rod. Feel free to contact me direct at rodsbyvern@mywdo.com and we can discuss it.

Thanks

Vern

Doc Ski has a few alphabets in different fonts for weaving names. Not sure
if he has that font but you could ask him or check at @#$%&

You actually already have a couple of programs for weave patterns and fonts on your computer, but you probably don't realize it. They are MS Excel and MS Paint. If you open up MS Excel and type in text in any of the grids, you can edit the font size and font type for that grid (or the entire worksheet). Then you simply do a cntrl 'c' (copy)of the grid(s) you've chosen and paste it onto the blank white canvas of MS Paint. You can then zoom in to see the detail of the script and "Show Grid" under View/Zoom (I think this only works if you are zoomed in at 400% or more). From here you can clean up any fuzzy blocks that will appear lighter than the main body of the script by selecting a color of your coice from the paint color options at the bottom of the screen and carefully "touching up" the grids (using your left click mouse button). Don't forget your Edit/Undo function if you accidentally erase or over paint unintentionally.
