[–] stianan 15y ago ↗ Wow! How did you figure out all the letter arrangements? [–] Spyou 15y ago ↗ Unfortunately I didn't do it. It's all part of the Firefox demos for Firefox 4 https://demos.mozilla.org/en-US/

[–] eunice_chen 15y ago ↗ a perfect mix of great design and vision and programming :) i smiled when i realized what the title really meant!
[–] tomwans 15y ago ↗ This actually looked and performed great on the iPad 2. (You just couldn't move the shadow around)
[–] fourspace 15y ago ↗ More proof that web typography is finally reaching the state it should have been in a long time ago. I love it!
[–] whackberry 15y ago ↗ Can someone explain this to a typography ignorant person please? [–] davej 15y ago ↗ What is there to explain. The shadow of the text makes a silhouette of a head. [–] webXL 15y ago ↗ And the shadow is really just the same arrangement of letters in black. I thought it was canvas at first because it was blurry, but they use CSS text-shadow for that effect. [–] nitrogen 15y ago ↗ The curious can prove this by pressing Ctrl-A to select the letters (and all other text on the page).
