Flickr Word
In Flickr Word by Eugene, you type some text and see it displayed using Flickr photos, either as a font, or (as in the screenshot above) with pictures of letters. Right-click to access the various options. In full-screen mode, I was able to use the scroll-wheel (two-finger dragging on my MacBook Pro's trackpad) to quickly change the zoom factor.
Extremely creative. The letter “O” needs some refining.
Below is current result for “o” to the left; suggested is to the right.

My previous post was more clear as a draft. The formatting got mashed after submitting.
Retrying :
The “O” before

The “O” as it should be :

Well that didn’t do it. One more shot at overcoming the formatting challenge using period as fillers for spaces which seem to be truncated going from draft to final submit.
Before :
….x.x..
…x..x..
…x..x..
….x.x..
After should be:
….x.x..
…x…x..
…x…x..
….x.x…
If this doesn’t work, feel free to delete any and all of my comments.
