Stylish Textifier (đđĽđŞđđđ¤đ đťđđđđđđđđ ) Font Generator
This stylish font generator tool (đ¤đĽđŞđđđ¤đ đđ đđĽ đđđđđŁđđĽđ đŁ đĽđ đ đ) allows you to easily convert your ordinary text into a variety of stylish formats. Just type your text below and the transformed styles appear instantly in the output fields. Click the clipboard on the right side to copy the stylized text to your clipboard. Explore all of the creative options (ęęŞęęęę¤ę´ę ęŚęŁęę¤ęŚę¤ę).
Use this styled text generator in any circumstances where plain text is generally used and you don’t have control over fonts or styling (i.e. in text messages and social media posts).
Note: While using Stylish Textifier, please be aware that stylized text created through Unicode may not be accessible to all users. This is not for use where accessibility is important stylized text looks like letters but screen readers will not be able to read this text. Screen readers and other assistive technologies may struggle to interpret non-standard text formats, potentially hindering the experience for individuals with visual impairments.
To ensure inclusivity, consider providing a plain text alternative for critical information and avoid using stylized text for essential communication. Always prioritize clarity and accessibility in your content.

Iceberger Remixed and Improved – Iceberg Simulator
The melting algorithm has been updated so that melting below water is faster than melting above the waterline. It’s fun to try to get the iceberg pieces to radically change orientation when the iceberg breaks apart due to melting.
Draw (or choose) an iceberg and visualize how it will float and melt
I was so impressed with the interactive Iceberger tool that Josh Tauberer (@JoshData) made that I had to modify it and add some additional features. Click here to see the original. My additions allow you to conjure up pre-made “icebergs” to see how they float and also allow some interaction. Try “poking” the icebergs you make.
Josh and I were both inspired by a tweet by Megan Thompson-Munson (@GlacialMeg).
Today I channeled my energy into this very unofficial but passionate petition for scientists to start drawing icebergs in their stable orientations. I went to the trouble of painting a stable iceberg with my watercolors, so plz hear me out.

Instructions
You can choose between 3 different iceberg creation options:
- Draw Iceberg – the original Iceberger option. Choose this option and draw any shape you want and see how it floats.
- Select State – Choose this option and select from one of the states of the United States to see how it will float.
- Select Shape = Choose this option and select from one of the premade shapes to see how it will float.
Once the iceberg has been created, you can also affect it in a couple of different ways:
- Click on the Iceberg – This lets you push on the left side of the iceberg to induce some rotation and see if there are multiple stable orientations. Click it several times in a row if you want to flip the iceberg over. If you push on the right size it will rotate the iceberg clockwise and if you push on the left size, it will rotate counter clockwise. if you push in the middle third of the iceberg, it will push it straight down.
- Melting – You can select between different options – No melting, slow medium and fast. This took awhile to code correctly. Previously, I’d just scale parts of the iceberg but this new code actually takes material away from the surface of the iceberg in a uniform way. It works more like you would expect melting ice to behave. Also melting occurs more quickly underwater than in the air.
- Changing the Sky – You can change the colors of the sky between sunrise, midday and sunset colors.
- Showing forces – You can toggle whether to show the center of buoyancy (B) and center of gravity (B) of the iceberg.
Some Physics – no equations
The force of gravity (G) affects the entire body regardless of where it is or how it is oriented. If you show the forces, the red dot labeled G shows where the center of mass of the iceberg is. The blue dot labeled B shows where the center of buoyancy is. This is the center of mass of the part of the iceberg that is submerged. The force acting on the submerged part is equal to the volume of water displaced. If the center of buoyancy is below the center of gravity, then the forces will be equal and object will be in stable equilibrium. If the center of buoyancy is somewhere other than under the center of gravity, then the buoyant force will be pushing up on a different place than the gravity force and this will induce a rotation until they are directly over one another.
The code has been updated so that multiple icebergs are now allowed. Melting can separate a single piece of iceberg into multiple pieces, just as in real life. The melting process was a bit difficult to program because of the complexity of shapes that could be produced.
If you have additional suggestions for shapes or countries to add to the list or other improvements to make, let me know in the comments. Also if you are using this as a teaching tool, I’d love to hear how you are incorporating it into your curriculum.

This visualization uses HTML/CSS/Javascript code from the Iceberger app to simulate the buoyancy of icebergs. Melting was accomplished with the help of code from the turf.js, polygon-offset and simplify.js javascript libraries. Additional elements of the UI and other features are also made using HTML, CSS and javascript.
