Cheers, was wondering if there was a specifically chalky one about with a chalk/charcoal-like texture.
Think I'll probably scan some handwriting anyway.

haha, impressive to even find this thread in the first place

to add something to the topic though; Do it yourself, its not harder than that. Either write it on a blackboard, or improvise with papermedias or such to get the texture. A roller on watercolour paper makes great "effects" for example.

Wow... Started in 2003, re-awoken in 2006 and resurrected in 2008. I guess we'll be due an answer in about 2010.
