It looks wonderful. I just went to download it and got this, though:

BTW if anyone knows any more info about this typeface (ie who designed it) i'd love to know. All I know is that it came out of a typeface foundry called Dan. X Solo in the 60's
It Might As Well Be Spong

Hi Guys,
Wanted to share with you all a font I made out of love and passion in my spare time.
It's sourced directly from the original Goodies alphabet - a typeface designed in the 1960's called "PhotoMania", or in some instances plain "Mania".
I grew up like most of you watching the Goodies in the 80's and I became obsessed with this typeface for some reason. As I am a graphic designer today, I still hold this typeface as my favorite of all time
Anyway, you can download the font here http://au.f2.pg.briefcase.yahoo.com/drabschinator2
Or, preview the font at http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y52/drabschinator2/mania-preview.gif
There's no usage restriction on it, it's freeware and you can use it commercially if you like. Just send us an example of where you use it electronically if you can, or credit my website (www.daydream.aunz.com)
The reason why I did this? Because my eyes bleed every time I see Bellbottom being used as a Goodies font!
Hope you enjoy! I put alot of time and effort into replicating this to the finest detail.
