The Sursly Font – Blackout – Now Downloadable
Blackout: I love it, but I’m setting it free…
As much as I fear seeing this font pop up in unexpected places, I’m equally excited about that same concept. For the time-being, this font (and corresponding files) will remain on sursly.com (and only there). As I develop Blackout further I will update this post and link to the latest version (wherever it may be), but for the time being: get it while it’s hottt
GET BLACKOUT
by downloading this ZIP file and contents you agree to not re-distribute or modify the contents in any way. Please read the .txt file for more information
Since you can use this for personal and/or commercial purposes I’d love to see what you do with it. Either post a comment below or send me an email. Don’t send attachments, just link-up to the work.
A little outer glow never hurt nobody
I’m also including the PSD file that was used to make these example files (which was made in CS2). I make no guarantees that this won’t blow up your computer, but it hasn’t happened to me. So I have to say: use at your own risk.

I wonder how can you create the paper texture in psd file?
June 18th, 2009 at 11:47 am
Paper texture: I fold/crumple/whatever paper, scan it in and make a brush out of it in Photoshop. Pretty simple (and there are many out there): http://tinyurl.com/nx6z6l

Sorry about the Windows trouble. Until my Windows machine is up and running again I won’t really be able to help you out. Soon though, sit tight.
Thanks for all your great comments and support!
