Question...how do you make your own clock? Is it fairly simple, once you have one made, just to switch out fonts? I like the clock you posted...but, I'm not a huge fan of the font...

There are 4 manila files that need to be edited to change the clock numbers. Each digit is its own png image...well...there are 3 numbers in each manila file except for the last one...it only has the #9. The trick is to get them to be the correct size and spaced properly. Quite honestly making clocks are a major PITA.

I would consider making another clock as time permits...give me a font name and if I have it in my font creation tool I'll see what i can do.

I agree. I have made a few clocks & it's not as simple as just deleting & dropping a new font in (like say you would do in a word doc)

Re: TP2 New Clock

Do you have a font called "Carbon Type?" I think that would make a nice reflective clock. Perhaps a font called "Alien League?" If you don't have those fonts, I'm sure I could post it up for you...

Re: TP2 New Clock

That's pretty cool...question, how come the reflection is off center from the top part? Also, if I install that clock over the crystal clock I have, will that make the reflective clock clear?

I tried to copy the image as best as possible...from the pic the reflected numbers showed the entire number in the reflection so thats what I went with...but check the new attached images above and let me know what you think.

Re: TP2 New Clock

YEAH!! Can I get the cab for both the alien league and the carbon type? Also, will installing those over the crystal clock make them clear?
