‘typographic’ effects. Tagxedo is a really useful website that can be
used for creating typography word clouds and digital calligrams.

word.
If you select ‘Theme’, you can select different colour options.
You can choose your own ‘shape’ from the area, or you can upload your own
‘simple’ image from the Internet.
You can play around with the type, particularly if you keep ‘re respinning’ the re-
spin arrow key.
