Question How Can I Get/Make CUSTOM Fonts for the HTC Home Plugin Clock?!

I'm sorry... I know that this has been discussed, because I've seen a few pictures floating around the boards of people who have customized their clock. ...and I'm not talking about with the HHC, I mean they have clock fonts that are NOT available within the live downloads.

I swear on everything that I tried searching. I must have put in like 10 different phrases, but to no avail. If anyone can help me out I'd really appreciate.

Don't get me wrong... I appreciate you taking the time to reply, but that's exactly what I said that I didn't need. I have the HTC Home Customizer...

What I want to know is how to make My Own Fonts for the Clock...

You need a graphics program that will write .png files and some talent. When you get a program that can create .png files open an existing clock font and look at it to see correct pixel size etc., and create away.
You also have to know how to make the background correctly. I have edited existing clock fonts using PhotoShop Elements and pasted them over originals to keep the same background (i.e. transparent etc.).
I don't know that much about how to create them from scratch but I do know this is something that can be taught in a few forum posts.

Damn! I was hoping it wasn't that complicated. I see the 2 new clocks that have been added, but I wish there were more. Like some real #d-Type clocks. Oh well, ast least it's not locking up my phone anymore...

Just do like itsall_cooool said. For example, use photoshop, open the png files from an existing clock font, make a new layer with the format you want, using the old font as a template. Its easy but time consuming. Thats how I made my mason font clock, and it rocks! Its worth the time.
