Font using dots instead of letters - Design your own version (type a mapping) (dotsies.org)

I coded up this page in response to the comments from my HN post on Thursday - http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3601687 . There was a lot of interest / critique re the mapping between letters and dots, so I resurrected this UI for experimenting into a better web form.

Thanks for the comments on Thursday - I enjoyed battling it out :)


Try clicking the "random" link a bunch of times to got a feel for the possible variations.


Are you really able to read this? :D


For sho. Took a little time, but there are only 26 letters so it's easier than you'd think.
