More updating

Earlier this year I updated a number of typefaces on myfonts.com.

I realized that by adding just a few characters, I could increase the color possibilities of fonts which have letters on things. Below are examples for CoffeeMug, FeggoliteKeyed, JetJaneButton, NewLibrary, and Teapot.
These results can be obtained either by using layers of by multiple keys using characters with zero width. 

In several other revisions I added additional faces that must be used in layers. For the typeface Brrrrr the snow was isolated. Below the regular Brrrrr typeface is placed on a dark dark blue background and then the isolated snow style is colored white and layered above the base layer. 



Two new styles were added to the MedicineShelf font, a style that has only the outline of the bottles and a solid bottle style. Below the solid style is the bottom layer, the regular MedicineShelf style is the next layer, and the final layer is the outline of the bottles. 



Two new styles were added to the whimsical Concavex typeface, an outline and a style that has the interior of that outline. When I finished I realized that I needed only the outline and original styles to get any of the effects that I wanted.


The shadow of the PhederFrack-Shadowed has been separated out and when used in a layer, can give the shadow a different color than the letter.


The Salloon family had a number of additions and changes. There are three new styles that contain interior decorations that can be layered over SalloonWide and Salloon. Salloon has an outline style, and the various filled members of the family were altered so that they could be layered over the regular version of Salloon for additional coloring.
