First, great free fonts here!

FontStruct's interface couldn't be more intuitive. The central metaphor is a sheet of paper. You draw letters on the "sheet" using a set of standard paint tools (pencil, line, box, eraser) and a library of what FontStruct calls "bricks" (squares, circles, half-circles, crescents, triangles, stars). If you keep at it and complete an entire alphabet, FontStruct will package your letters into a TrueType file that you can download and plunk into your PC's font folder. And if you're feeling generous, you can tell FontStruct to share your font with everybody else on the Internet under a Creative Commons license. Every font has its own comment page, which tends to fill with praise, practical advice, or just general expressions of devotion to FontStruct.
