 | IceType? GlassFont? GlassType? FontSmoother?
OK, it looks like I've removed most of the bugs from my antialiased font hack. I still may have a bug in the font generator code (PalmFontConv), so that needs to be fixed.
I got a lot of good name suggestions. Thank you! I'm down to four finalists. Votes are welcome.

| No offense, but where is the "none of the above" option?
I dont like "Fontsmoother", but its the only one that really fits.

| Ditto... I voted Fontsmoother because it's the best of the bunch -- but I don't really like any of them. I wish I could offer up something else. Quote: | Originally Posted by jjesusfreak01 No offense, but where is the "none of the above" option?

I took the four suggestions I liked best from the other thread... I do want the name to be one of them.

I voted IceType because FontSmoother is a bit TOO straightforward, and too PalmOS-ish. I also don't like the word 'smoother.'

| I like NuClearType as well. Creative in my opinion, and I always like plays on words. Of the choices above, IceType get my vote. Fontsmoother, while descriptive, sounds like a drink someone would order in the tropics.

| Well, of course, I voted for IceType. I suggested it in the first place. Why? Because it's "Cool, and Clear".

| I see Fonst4OS5 3.2 is out with support for "Fontsmoother" so I guess a release of the later is close?? | |
