JudasIscariot: Big dude, tiny little hammer, infinite amount of innuendo :P
It's not HAVING a tiny hammer that gives it away, it's NOTICING it and seeing significance ;).

Stuff: Ok . . . now I get flashes of the process . . . =)
This is a remarkably factual artist's recreation of the event, yes.

ceemdee: With the right ingredients you can also bake the delicious font yourself.
I am in awe of that cake.

TheEnigmaticT: I asked our design team; apparently the letters were wrought from steel quarried up from the depths of the mountain over which sat Barad-dûr. Quenched in the blood of a thousand Bothans, the final, majestic piece emerged. Wrought with the skill of a lifetime of logo-smithing, the letters remain an iconic and indelible imprint in history.
I thought that was how they made Comic Sans? Or are there some levels of evil to which even Sauron will not descend?

There are no levels to which Sauron will not descend. He always wins at NetHack. ;)

Well, since one doesn't exist here is a GOG font.
It doesn't have everything yet, but it does have the alphabet, numbers and basic punctuation.
However, it's not edible and I can't be held responsible if your résumé is ignored due to being typed in it.

Can I get you to do me my résumé in cake? It might be just the sort of bribe I need to get a job in this town.

Then again they could eat it then claim I never sent it and ask for a replacement

Well, maybe if the cake was drugged...

Very cool of you ceemdee to make a font. Friend of mine has been working on a font also. I don't think he was quite finished. Here is a result of his work:

*edit* did some testing with your font, looks great so far. If you ever plan on finishing it let us know in this thread please, and with a link to get it again. =)

Hmm... looks quite good, but, for example, I think letters like "a", "d" should be more "rounded" (vs "o", "g").

Also I do not like "e" somehow.

much better :) "x" is still too sharp I think, but...

Still thinking what can be possible to do about "e".. - not many options.

Maybe something similar to small e in second row here?

Lexor:
Well that would turn the 'e' into a capital letter.

That's very nice ceemdee! I had to give it a go! I like the "e". It matches the "g" and fits the font.

EDIT: Heres a closeup

I think it looks great for the navbar buttons (under banner) for my teams Adventures in Vue forum.
Adventures in Vue btw is a GOG.com community RPG devised by stoicsentry.

Thank You!!
