Facelift Image Replacement
Looking for FLIR (Facelift Image Replacement)? You’re in the right place.
I created the web font polyfill known as FLIR to be an alternative to sIFR, however, it is no longer needed and is effectively dead. Good riddance!! :)
Since the days of FLIR, web fonts have come a long, long… long! way and crappy workarounds are simply no longer needed.
If you’re still using FLIR — dump it now for one of the many great alternatives!
- Google Web Fonts
- Adobe Edge Web Fonts
- Adobe’s TypeKit
- Font Squirrel
- Am I missing anyone?
If you’d like to learn more about my footnote in internet history, please take a look at Archive.org’s snapshot of the Facelift page.
Also, if you want the actual FLIR code for some reason, email me at cory.mawhorter@gmail.com, and I can probably track down a copy.
