: I'm trying to download the fonts, but my picture viewer is saying that it "Could not get picture from file. Possibly not a picture file." Does this mean that my computer is incapable of using this font? I found a cool website called fontguy.com and you can look under his MOVIE section. They even have a Bladerunner font.

Are you using a Mac or a Windows PC? I'm not sure I understand the problem. I'm assuming you downloaded the font(s) successfully... all you need to do is click on the name of the font, and your browser will download it to your desktop. They are in Zip format and must be unZipped first (your browser should do this automatically). Then place the fonts where they belong (I not sure of the procedure for PCs... on Macs -- after converting them to Mac format -- you simply drag them into the System Folder and the OS will automatically place them in the Fonts folder, then quit currently running applications, and re-launch). When you re-launch your apps, the new fonts should be available for use. Hope this helps.
