Making an Impact...
Ten years or so back, I downloaded a program that let me redesign the letter shapes of fonts. It seemed like a good idea at the time to poke some holes in Microsoft's standard "Impact" font and make it look messy and 'grungy.' I relabelled it "Impacted" and covertly set it free on the internet in the shadowy land of remixed typefaces. Here it is on a sign in the mall at Amiens, France. Fonter and font reunited. It was a happy moment. Louise walked on, unimpressed.
