Do I need a special program or something.

I was just drawing a load of letters after finishing a math exam with half an hour to go and found that they'd look good as a font so does anyone know how to make 'em?

Search Google. It will tell you.

But it will take a looooong time to do it.

And there's probably a similar font on the net somewhere anyway...

The person on that tutorial uses Macromedia Fontographer (which isn't free and you can't download a trial)
There are free font programs around but I don't know the names and have only seen them for Linux.
