Damn, i really wish you had mentioned this a while ago. I've completed work on most of the new display graphics , including the new Death Star countdown screens, and would now be impossible to go back now to use your amazing font. There are so many different layers involved, each rendered in sections, that i would have to start from scratch to be able to change the font i'm afraid. I would have preferred to have used one that was movie accurate but i didn't know until i just read your post that Aurabesh wasn't. I still have a few more graphics to complete so i will be using your galactic font for these. Most people won't even notice the difference but i am a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to things like this. Thanks for the font Erikstormtrooper. I still have 5 more movies to do so at least now those ones will be more accurate.
Here's a shot of one of the new Death Star display graphics.

Hmm, that's odd. Well I might as well just post it here then. I was just wondering which special edition changes in ESB you don't like? Also, aside from his grin, why don't you like Hayden at the end of ROTJ, and do you think you'll keep the Naboo shot during the celebration?

Well i hate the new shuttle sequences added to the end of ESB. they just break up the flow of the action. I don't mind the new "alert my stardestroyer..." section but the rest has to either be minimised to one shot or gone completely. Also they add a nice new window in cloud city just before they meet Vader but for the rest of the sequence the window is back to its pre-SE appearance. Ad Hayden in ROTJ is one of the worse changes in the whole SE saga. He is looking straight at the camera, weird grin on his face and is just sooooooo out of place that i can't watch the DVD version of Jedi any more. Why the hell would he appear as a force ghost as his younger self? he turned back to the good side when he was an old man and that was the first time Luke got to see his fathers face. And i hate the excuses that "he was younger when he turned to the dark side so his ghost would have the appearance that he was younger" bollox. Luke wouldn't even know who the hell this guy was that just appeared by Obi-Wan & Yoda. It makes sense to me that he should be an old man when he appears and i will not be budging on that when i come to ROTJ. I will be keeping all the celebration shots at the end of ROTJ but just removing the "weesa free" line from it.
