Using custom fonts in Cocos2d javascript

In order to use custom fonts in Cocos2d, I had to add the following to the header of the HTML page so I could later reference the font for menus and buttons:

<style>
@font-face {
font-family: 'Stiltedman ';
font-style: normal;
font-weight: 400;
src: local('Stiltedman '), url("fonts/Stiltedman .ttf") format("truetype");
}
</style>

In essence, this is required so the browser will download the font, making it be referencable by the library.

This works in Chrome and Firefox. From my understanding, Internet Explorer requires a different font format, which I dont plan on supporting.

I was in need of a consistant way to create simple, evenly spaced spritesheets from multiple layers in Paint.NET and I figured I would share the plugin.

DOWNLOAD: Paint.NET Spritesheet plugin

It looks like February's game will be a Breakout clone. The take away for this game will be JSON loaded levels and IOS native webapp support. As with January's game, all code will be made available via github.

Investigating the Udacity online HTML5 class starting in February. The class summary says that it will cover the major components of an existing HTML5 game, but I am concerned that game is only Chrome compatible.
