You'll be able to submit your creation in the big "Default Style Contests",
and maybe win the first prize: a Cheapo[TM] coffee machine!

Hey, I'm just playing around with this stuff. This was to show white fonts
on black, something that didn't work with the "old" texture fonts, and does
still not work well with plib's built-in pixmap fonts, which are too thin.
That's why I compiled two "fgfs" fonts in binary form. The first[1] is still
thin but a little bigger than what plib offers, and the second[2] is bold
enough for dark backgrounds. Could possibly be made a bit smaller (12 pt?).

I thought first that we should keep the old style by default, and only make
new ones optional. But maybe it's time for a change for v1.0.0? The light
blue is really only suited for boys. We'd need a pink one anyway.  ;-)
