TrueType Font in a user object?

Folks,
You may have noticed the great "Objects" chooser in Squeak.
Just Alt-o (Cmd-o on a Mac). It is a master parts bin for objects.
I'd like to add a banner-like TTSampleStringMorph that uses a
TrueType font. This would be great for presentations, etc. (In "Fun
with Morphic" there already is "Squeak Rulez" that looks great. I am
trying to generalize this and make it available.)
Do you know five or six great free TrueType fonts that I
could download and put into the release image? They must be free
enough to live under our license.
Do you have code that can bring in a TrueType font from a web
site at the click of a mouse in Squeak? It would be really good to
have this and a list of urls in Squeak.
Do you have a favorite place in the system where we should
hold these fonts, so they can be available for TTSampleStringMorph to
use them?
Thanks in advance!
--Ted.
