Re: [Super-tux-devel] Font

Hey there,

 Your small white fonts are now working fine, the big white ones still have 
some height-related problem.

 Here, I took two pictures:

(the main menu, as you can see the big font is broken)

http://rpmcruz.planetaclix.pt/trash/newchars.png
(the new chars in action)

 Anyway, I think you should get rid of those first two rows. We don't need to 
display Esc or Enter... They just create more work for artists, i think.

 And could you do the gold font for the Benny's hand written letters? Thx.
