Most of you probably read the Rapid E-learning Blog, where Tom K recently recommended using handwritten fonts last year to add character to your elearning courses. There are lots of free ones out there, as well as ways to turn your own handwriting into a custom font.

I tried YourFonts.com a few weeks ago, thinking I might make a banner for this blog out of my own handwriting, but I wasn’t quite satisfied… with my handwriting, that is. The service was pretty freakin’ impressive. Still, my font isn’t there yet.

But I get another chance! On May 9, they’re running a special offer: Use the coupon code CPN4MOM2010 when you check out and you can make as many fonts as you like for free. This is only good on May 9, because… nothing says Mother’s Day like lots of free, custom fonts?
