Description

This image was created entirely in UF, using a TrueType outline importer I've been working on. Importing font outlines directly into UF means I can use all of my favorite UF toys on text without losing any resolution of the text's edge. I didn't actually use any such transformations in this demo image, but I did with some other images. As such this image isn't really meant to be a great piece of art, but rather a technology demonstration. The program requires a bit more polish and documentation before being released.

Very interesting... I look forward to hearing more about this project! Which versions of UF will it support?

I didn't bend over backwards to make the rendering formula compatible with UF3 (i.e. I didn't test it) but it's unlikely to require anything UF4-specific. The outline importer program itself requires at least Windows 2000 (anyone still using Win98 is out of luck).
