    If anyone sees a website using the 2010 LazyTown Style

    Please link me,
    you can tell is it's 2010 by the use of LazyType Beta, and the new LazyTown logo.
    Im trying to keep a collection of assets and images. and keep LazyType Beta up to date with symbols.
    Thanks!

    Im finding all the info and images ect ect of LazyType beta that i can,
    so far we have 2 main resources for it,
    The leaked style guide, and the lazytown adsa website.
    the style guide do sent contain any symbols,
    the adsa website can be used as a reference to recreate them,
    the adsa website also contained something that could be VERY useful,
    it uses a js framework called "cufon" which allows sites to use their own fonts instead of being limited to the few standard ones.
    the adsa site used it for 2 fonts, Imago and lazytypebeta,
    it's transformed into a js file with cufon, im yet to find out how much of it is actually there.
    The JS file contained a copyright gave me this info:

    Full name:
    LazyTypebeta
    Description:
    Beta Release
    Manufacturer:
    LazyTown
    Designer:
    Vatikanid - Nokkvi Thorsteinsson

    It's obviously still not finished, (hence the beta)
    will post when i have more news

      Sounds good. I don't have any knowledge about javascript and how fonts fit into that. Good luck!

        Well the "cufon" framework has a JS generator on it's site that turns fonts into JS.
        ive hit abit of a wall however, the FW also allows locking to domains, which asda have done, so it's not a simple copy the JS and modify the page.
        on the upside the idiot who created cufon releases the WHOLE thing open source, including the generator and domain locker
        my PHP is abit rusty but i should be able to fix it.

                  Update on the cufon version.
                  cufon works with JSON, the font is converted to JSON from a VML version.
                  the VML version is made from a SVG version, which is made from the original font using fontforge
                  This shows it better:


                  The VML could be found, but i recently found out it's useless
                  [attachment=0:3ec0a]LTB Asda.png[/attachment:3ec0a]
                  modifying the page content allowed me to type whatever i wanted, but symbols weren't included in that version, so it's pointless.
