Please note that this *might* be SaaSS, but at least the website claims no copyright over the font created, which means you can license it however you like when redistributing.

First, my handwriting is horrible.
Second, I see a lot of kids being told "do your homework by hand", they are gonna love this :P
Third, I advise everyone to use Tor and be careful when distributing the font, since they can be using this to "learn" your writing style and spy you later.
Fourth, thanks for the link, it might come in handy :)

It's not *might* but *indeed*. This *is* SaaSS. And it also spy you? No thanks, we have more than enough with Google. Thanks for the idea anyway, it could be fun to make my own font (with Inkscape of course).
