Walosi's Instructional Cherokee Font install for PC's

Okay, you wanna install a Cherokee font. Here is the official Cherokee Font. Instructions and everything you need to know about it is right there.

http://www.cherokee.org/Culture/CherokeeFont/Downloads.aspx

Now, not all fonts are alike and as everyone likes choices, here are some more!

http://www.languagegeek.com/font/fontdownload.html

Aboriginal San Serif

Aboriginal Serif

Digowheli

The three listed on this site are good. For more choices there is this link....for the truly geeky.

http://www.wazu.jp/gallery/Fonts_Cherokee.html

Okay, this is from Japan but they have the best collection. I don't know why. (Maybe something about Windtalkers...good movie!)Download 'em all for the true nerd in you!

Download and install the fonts to your PC. Go to Control Panel, Fonts and at the top bar there is a drop down that lets you install, Locate the folder you extracted the zipped files to and it will show you a list of available fonts. Click the select all button and then install. Once they are in there you should be able to see the fonts on the web pages that have it.

Now for the typing part, there are two ways to do it. If you got the keyboard map from the Cherokee Nation that only works for their font. If you want to use another font you need a program that lets you see the Unicode fonts. I use a program called Babel Map

http://www.babelstone.co.uk/Software/BabelMap.html

Instructions and the program are here. The download is at the bottom of the web page. Unzip and install.

Now it is different and so take your time, you speed will improve. It is searchable, sort of...in search type the phonetic sound and it finds the character...cool ...but it doesn't go back to search it just goes down....you will see what I mean when you use it...hover over the font and the sound of the character pops up..it is really good for learning the syllabary.

The other way is to get into your on screen keyboard and select Cherokee as the font and they will show up on the keys, you have to tweak the size of the font and stuff but it does work.

Have fun!

mmmmmm.....PIE....

Pie...
Apple,Cherry,Pumpkin,Peach,BlueBerry,Blackberry,Raspberry,Sweet Potato, Strawberry,Elderberry,MinceMeat,Rhubarb(not a favorite),Pecan,Buttermilk,Lemon,Key Lime,Chocolate Pudding,Banana Split, and any other flavor you can think of.

I like pie... It has brought many pleasant memories, changed strangers into friends and even got me a job once.(more about that another day)

I'm not talking about the pie served at McDonalds but a real pie made by someone who can cook with love. Pie can be awesome. Food is a social event to gather (hungry) people together. What can be better than a group of hungry people cutting a slice of pie from the whole and eating a piece.

Pie is the ultimate.

We all like the first piece.
There is nothing like the picture of a uncut pie.
I like to go back for seconds.
Juicy on the inside.
We like to lick the plate and nibble at the crust.
Tastes better with cream.
Any size will do, but the bigger the better.
We can eat it anytime...morning, noon or night.
I like to try new flavors.
I've been known to have eaten two pies at one time.

...it's all about the pie....



The world is a better place with pie in it and in me.
