I wanted a Japanese-type font, so I downloaded a free font called "Karate". I made this in gimp by creating 3 layers. One layer for the Yellow text. One layer for the shadow-colored text. One layer for the hidden ninja in the shadows. I wanted the ninja to be subtle to almost not be noticeable, but if you looked for it, you could find it. I also alternated the shadows for the "D".
