I'll definitely look into that resizing. I honestly had (err still have actually) no idea what that code is actually doing other than it "appears" to do what I intended. The more I dig into your lib, the more I learn about it. I'm recommending it to everybody who uses fonts. :)
oh didn't even consider the epilepsy warning. This whole project started out as nothing more than just a brain dump of "what can I do to demo this?"
thanks so much for the help so far. I look forward to asking you a lot more XD
