I used that mode for adding texture to the background. Yes, I chose this type (Boop Boop) which I think has a nice modern goofy sort of quality. The designer wanted to go a different way, but we eventually compromised -- the final cover will have the title as you see it, but the names in another (boring!) typeface.<br>Congratulations on Hot Frog's anniversary.
