In these pages everyday fishermen, pros, and journalists tell their stories of freak accidents, fishy attacks, pranks, idiotic decisions, eerie or unexplained incidents, and other jaw dropping, adrenalin-pumping calamities. The stories bring to life the strange possibilities that await us once we cast our lines into known and unknown waters.

Here are some of the characters you'll meet inside these pages:

* A sport fisherman who gets taken on harrowing underwater ride by an angry white shark.
* An adventure angler whose boat is over turned by a 200 lb Amazon-river catfish.

I haven't seen any post a CMod Narrow font hack yet.  Any chance of this one being posted since that was my font of choice? Smiley

Thanks in advance.

I'm waiting for this one, too.  Can someone help?

"TedSan" has now converted his fonts for 2.3, which are available at https://sites.google.com/a/etccreations.com/kdesignworks/kindlev23fonts. (I'll not be adding these all to my page, as there are so many. Instead I have simply provided a link to his page.)

PS: I just installed the "Fontin2" font from TedSan's page, and I think it's my new favorite. Smiley

Could you show us a screen shot of the Fontin please? I have Georgia 2, but I'd like to see this one too.

I do like that. . . .I don't think it's available for the DX. Sad

Oh!  Yes it is!  Smiley . . . (He's added a bunch since I last looked.)  The one above is Fontin or Fontin2?

Is there anywhere on any of the sites that have screenshots of the other fonts?

I used the Fontin2 font.

Looks like he's still adding fonts as we speak. Smiley

PS: You can view many of them at his original font hack page. (Note: these are the old hacks, do not download them for your 2.3 Kindles!)

OK, I'm quite interested in installing a font hack.  I'm usually pretty good at this stuff...however...

I've followed your instructions to the letter and installed the Georgia font hack for the Kindle DX several times.  Each time when I go to the Settings screen and click the Menu button, the Update Your Kindle option is still grayed out.  I have a Kindle DX which my wife purchased for me two months ago.  My serial number begins with B005, which according to the instructions means it's an Global/International DX serial number.  Is there a separate font hack I should be using?  I've tried the Kindle DX font hack and the Kindle 2i font hack, to no avail. 

Any assistance will be *greatly* appreciated.  Thanks in advance.

OK, thanks.  I've successfully downloaded this font hack, and it worked.  It is better than before.  I'd be interested if there are any other "flavors" of font hacks for the DXI.

Wonderful work. I enjoy the screensaver hack a lot. I liked the unicode font hack as well, but I have a question.

Is it possible to install the unicode font hack ONLY FOR THE BROWSER?

Either way, wonderful work and many thanks.
