Draw anything with Japanese Hiragana!
My buddy Matt Morgan (morgasm) brought this cool flash app called Fontpark by Morisawa to my attention. The site first plays a few examples of what you can do. The rest is up to how you combine Japanese kana to draw almost anything. Animation is super slick. Loving this site.
Hit the jump to see what I created. His name is Bucktooth. Don't forget to see it in action!

seems like there's alot more hiragana utilized than kanji.

Cool app. On a side note, one thing that has always bothered me is calling Kanji Japanese Kanji. As Kanji means Han (Chinese) characters, it would be calling it Japanese Chinese Characters.
But nevertheless, ideographics are awesome.
