Do you think I could just leave this part blank and it'd be okay? We're just going to replace the whole thing with a header image anyway, right?

Text Decoration

Decoration block that has one letter per block, since mod text is too laggy for peasant usage.

Oh that, the thing in TOOP's cut content thread. I don't know why they've cut this because I really liked the idea.

Re: Text Decoration

The thing about English is that they have different widths.
For example, "W" has more space than "l".
Therefore, wouldn't it look a bit wonky if it weren't evenly placed?


Isn't this eggciting?

Yes. That's what looks wonky imo.

The problem is that they are all the same width, and for me, it looks bad.

I think that's just because that uses a non monospace font to demonstrate monospace, which means it wasn't designed to be used like that so looks a bit wonky... If you used an actual monospace font then the wide letters would be squished a bit smaller and the thin letters stretched a bit wider, so it wouldn't look as out of place.

This is an actual monospace font, so it doesn't look that bad

Would it still look as good when the length and width is the same?
