This is a project I’ve started here at BittBox as a community effort to create a free font so that everyone who’s willing can have a hand in the creation process. It will be a 100% free typeface, and anyone who wants to help can design a character/letter of their choosing. Let’s make history :) !!!!!

This is how it works:

Below, you’ll find a few tables with all of the characters slated to be a part of this community-created font. Items marked with an “X” have already been accounted for, everything else is free game. People (everyone besides me) can choose a character that they want to design, create a hand-drawn character, and email it to me in jpeg or tiff format to jhilgert00(at)gmail.com. I will then use my software (Font Lab Studio) and create a font from all of the individual submitted characters, and I’ll give it away for free, right here on BittBox. Bookmark this page if your are interested in contributing, I will be updating the list of characters often.

Hey everyone, I’ve got a free font for you to download, and before you start blowing up the comments, let me explain why it’s a “demo” version. I recently started to sell some fonts on MyFonts.com as a secondary source of income. I have a contract with MyFonts, and giving away a demo version is the only way to still be able to share something with you, without violating my contract. Make sense? Ok, anyway the demo version only means its not the full version, you may use this font for personal and commercial projects.

I’ve been making high quality freebies here at BittBox for a little over a year and a half (19 Months). There are 94 posts in my Freebies section, and I thought I’d make a list for people to see all of my stuff in one place. I know how people love lists, so I’m making some of my own. These aren’t all of my freebies, just the cream of the crop. We’ll Kick the series off with my High Resolution Photoshop Brushes. Happy Downloading, here we go :D

We all love free stuff, especially here at BittBox, and I’ve teamed up with Flashloaded once again to give away just that - some free stuff. Flashloaded is prepared to give away 3 copies of the 3D Wall Pro Flash component ($179.95 retail value each) to 3 lucky BittBox commenters. The difference between the regular 3D Wall Component and Pro is significant. 3D Wall Pro can display not only images, but .FLV’s, .SWF’s and YouTube Videos, among other improvements. Rules and a video after the jump.
