3. Cool, thank you.
I have Papyrus on my computer, but the big letter at the very beginning of the first sentence is something it doesn't do. I wonder how they do that? I'm thinking about writing a "diary" type program in Java and I'm looking for ideas to make it look good. :D

4. Not sure how you can get the really fancy first letter...
May have to go to a completely different typeface for it.

5. I wonder if I can get by with using Olde English in a much larger
size, then switching to the Papyrus.

I hope I can get better at java programing and do something like that. I could set it up as if the first letter is (letterOfAlphabetA to letterOfAlphabetZ) then insert this graphic and take off the first letter of whatever the user enters. That might work. I need to practice more to figure out a way to do that with less extraneous code.

Hmm...I need to refresh my memory after a five month hiatus from practicing my beginning java programming and get cracking on this if I am ever going to finish it. I plan on making it a customizable java diary/book of shadows/weather/moon phase program.

I had started writing one in C# and was on my way. I took a break from the C# version when the class in college for Java came up, then I decided to write it in java instead.

I'm such a beginner in both languages though. This is definitely a long term project.
