ParticipantIt would help to know the English meaning of the phrase you’re trying for.

ParticipantAWESOME!!!
Any chance I can get it sent in a larger text? I know I’m being needy…sorry. When I screen shot this and enlarge it, it just becomes pixelated beyond legibility.

ParticipantJust zoom in your browser and THEN take the screen shot….

ParticipantNot sure what you want to use it for, but you could just do it on your own computer…?

Also, Labhrás replaced the ⟨s⟩ with the [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_S]long-s Unicode character ⟨ſ⟩[/url] which some people use to approximate the “insular s.” This isn’t necessary in this case, because the [url=http://gaelchlo.com/unicode.html]glyph used in the “Bunchló” font[/url] to represent the [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S#Computing_codes]Unicode point for normal ⟨s⟩[/url] already is meant to look like an insular s, like: Ss. Insular s actually has [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insular_script#Unicode]its own Unicode point[/url], although not many fonts can show it or the other insular letters (including Bunchló, Gadelica, &c., since, as mentioned, they already represent, e.g., the normal Unicode ⟨s⟩ as though it were an insular s).
Likewise with the ⟨r⟩: Labhrás replaced the [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R#Computing_codes]normal ⟨r⟩[/url] (which a font like Bunchló represents with a glyph looking like an insular r) with an “[url=http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/027c/index.htm]r with long leg[/url],” which again is sometimes used in other contexts to approximate an insular r.
Just using the font’s representations of the normal glyphs is actually in this case better:
“Is fear creaÄ‹ta mé aÄ‹ slánóiḋ an grá mé“
…Although it looks like the lenited letters don’t actually show up right on this website (i.e., they’re just shown in Times New Roman; cf. cÄ‹ dḋ) anyways…

Participanti bhfad níos fearr, Cúnla.
it’s about 60 years since we used those “old” s and r at school, but I still remember them.
Then about 10 years using the “new” r and s, but all the other letters in the old script ..
I loved it, and had awful trouble acclimatising to the Roman letters when my kids started school.eadaoin

No, it isn’t.
It is a (“normal”) round s in BunchlóOnly in Bunchló Ársa it is an insular s (and r respectively)

Well it looks like the lower case ones are insularized (in Bunchló GC), but not the upper? Ss Rr
