Wordpress Theme Generator
october 2008 by ulrichp
Generates a widget-compatible WordPress theme by picking and choosing from menus and dropdowns, created largely using the Yahoo! UI for layout. This is pretty sweet; I think next time I go to change layouts I'll be looking at this.

HPLHS Prop Fonts
august 2008 by ulrichp
On the endless and insane quest for authenticity, we have created more than 50 custom fonts to use in props. Typographical fashions change, and since the digital age overtook typesetting and graphic design, many of the fonts common in the time of Lovecraft have fallen into disuse. We've revived many of them from vintage sources, including the 1923 American Type Founder's specimen book and the Mergenthaler Linotype catalog from the mid-1930s.
