Any chance you might be able to provide this Wideglide font in a format that's usable by Macs?

That's a TTF. It can be opened on a Mac (lookin at it right now). In OSX at least, and I think it will open in OS9 as well.

Oh really? I was unaware of that. Thanks.

This will be a fun contest. I will submit an entry, although the competition will be tough.
Good luck to all...

I would imagine at least 300 dpi.

Man, slik stik needs to post more about what they want.. i mean, they just say design a slik stik marquee...they dont even mention if they want a slogan, what the slogan is, what type of message they want to convey or anything.. pretty friggin vague if you ask me.
A FEW MORE DETAILS would be nice.
:P

Isn't this just a "scam" to get a cheap marquee for their arcade machines? I mean, the end result will be sold on a commercial product.

What's the deadline? I thought I saw it somewhere but now I can't find it.
How do I submit an entry? I don't see any entries posted in the contest thread on the Slik Stik message board. What am I missing? :-\
