Excessive luminosity can be rather annoying for a wolf: :-)

I know that some of these look funny to some people.The ones with
the "A" in them might not seem right as i use Topaz-new for drawing
and viewing ascii.Its a cool font and its "A"'s are thin and tall.
Oh well,I just hope someone like some of them.

I don't know if Topaz New's a copyrighted font, but if not, could you
post/e-mail it to me? Thanks!
