sIFR 2.0: Rich Accessible Typography
See now this is a pretty interesting little project that I’m surprised the usual culprits on the web haven’t really talked about. Mike Davidson has just released sIFR 2.0: Rich Accessible Typography for the Masses. It’s a smart little method to actually enhance your typography without killing accessibility.
A flash file is created, but not after it’s jumped through a couple of hoops to make sure that the end user actually has the proper software to see the fantastic new and exciting typography.
What I’m most impressed about is just tight the entire package is. I love it when I download something and there’s a handy manual in it. The code might be the most spectacular in the world, however because I can’t make heads or tails of it, it’s pretty useless to me.
I’ve been having soo much fun with designing Emmortel lately, that I’ve got this mini creative boost, and I’m itching for the next project I take on because I’d also really like to implement this method and a couple of others that I’ve been learning.
