The show's logo contains text that uses a font called Generation B, as produced by Harold Lohner and it's available to purchase for $20 here(). Fans began to produce their own material (artwork/videos/websites/games/etc.) based upon the show and they thought it would be great if the text that appeared in their material could look like that in the show's logo. Rock paper scissors online. As such, at some point in time, a replica image was produced and released onto an image board that contained more or less a trace of the text in the logo. Encase computer forensics i manual by guidance software. This image was used by someone named Purple Tinker as a basis for the original Celestia Medium font. Some people began to pick up on, and question the morality/legality behind working on a 'knock-off' of a commercial font, as a consequence work upon the original Celestia Medium stopped, as too did it's (regular) availability. It was at this point I stepped in. I managed to track down a copy of Celestia Medium, and decided I'd work it into a less legally questionable 'fanbased' form. From the original font file I exported each of the available glyphs as an SVG and reworked them in Inkscape (and also produced several new ones). This allowed me to make the redux different from the original and also, hopefully, made it distinctive from Generation B. I should also point out, that before I did start the redux, I asked Harold Lohner if he didn't want me to, he gave me the very clear line of 'please don't rework the Generation B files', which I can't. _I guess it was inevitable._ Some of you may wonder about the license that this font is under.

The reason why public domain is below: PurpleTinker released Celestia Medium as public domain prior to ceasing work on it, and since I did work the files directly this means I didn't generate any 'original' content, and so legally I have to release it under the same license. I've never looked through any open source license in entirety, nor do I know the specifics of public domain, but from what I have come across - public domain feels the 'nice'-est of all licenses available, mainly because of the freedom it offers to anyone whom interacts with the content. ![]() The various strings attached to various copyleft materials/licenses detract from the apparent freedom they offer, and as someone who doesn't like strings I find this makes copyleft less attractive as a license. That being said, I find many more complaints with how most copyright licenses are written.
