Such a timesaver. The scissors, old newspaper and glue thing is so tiring.
I needed to create a cool natural-looking Ransom letter generator for a game with my wife. There are tons of services, but most of them look meh...

There are different approaches to generating funny looking letters:

- Vector/random Fonts/CSS: Lacks the natural Field - Character Images: Looks natural, but requires lots of work. But the real scissors-cut letter might have cool image artifacts in the background which gives even more natural look.

This anon-letter.online uses the 2nd option and does it really really well :)

i really like this, but the images are just too small! can we scale up at least 3x or 4x
