Need image of "say yes" in ES's handwriting

[felicity wormwood]

The subject line says it all, really: I need an image of the words "say yes" in ES's handwriting. The liner notes to "either/or" are all in type, not written out pretty like "Figure 8." If anyone has any setlists, scans, scribblings, etc., I'd appreciate if you emailed them to me:

darlinghecate@hotmail.com

Why? My friendly neighborhood tattoo artist is putting it on the inside of my wrist.

if you click on 'shows' up on the top of this page you'll be taken to the gigography. several of the shows in there have scans and pictures of handwritten setlists, many of which have say yes on them.

Sorry, I should have mentioned: I've already been through the setlists on sweetaddy; I just posted on the off chance that someone out there might have something different I could use as an additional starting point.

Thanks for the helpful responses already received, though.

There's also an Elliott Smith font floating around the internet. Simply download and install the ES font, load up good ole MS Word, type the magic words "say yes" and HEY PRESTO you have it in Elliott's inimitable handwriting.

the handwriting on the redfest setlist is Jennifer Chiba´s handwriting. but if you go to the shows section of sweetadeline.net and the go to the Sunset Junction 2001 show, you will find the setlist of that show, and it´s elliott´s handwriting, and it includes Say Yes :)

I have the font, but I have no idea how to use it... :(
Can anybody help me with this?

Ok I've attached the font here, but you have to rename the file extension from es.txt to es.ttf

Once you've done that, go to Control Panel - Fonts folder, open that up...then drag the es.ttf file into your Fonts folder, this should install it for you.

Then go to Microsoft Word, type up some wordy stuff and your Elliott font should be sitting there ready for use! Hope this helps. It's the most awesome handwriting style in the world...a great font to have.

Just bumping this thread up. Had a request for the Elliott font. I'd since reinstalled Windows, so all my original fonts are no longer around - but I found a link that still has the Elliott Smith font - it's part of a 'theme' package though so you have to extract the 'es.ttf' file from the zipped package.

Then once you grab the es.ttf file amd drag it onto say, your desktop, then right-click over it and choose 'install' - and you should be able to use it in Word / Wordpad or whatever program you use.

[some dude]

that's the first one i made... but it kinda sucks compared to the new one:
