so where is this thread gonna go? I want to talk about how I make letters weird.
OKAY FINE.
so ttf: here is what you have to do. write this on a piece of paper.
Dear ttf,
Sphinx of black quartz, judge my vow.
(your username)
then take a picture or scan it, up is (xs.to perhaps?) and post the link!
Alternatively 'the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog'... or any other pangram

awesome, I can do this. I like the dear ttf one :).

yay I'm gonna do this today.
I like your v, Fsmart.
hmmm... looks like another voodoo science
fs: if you remember, rucker's handwriting was always remarkably slanted to the left.
from that wikipedia page: "A left slant indicates emotional withdrawal."

some notable things about my handwriting:
my lowercase b's and d's are made without a line coming back down. i.e., I make by lowercase b's like 6s but the vertical line is straighter. I figured the extra line coming down was just a waste.
a lot of times my lowercase n's look almost like cursive lowercase r's, just a little hump kind of. you can't see it in this though because the n is after an i.
and finally my lowercase k's are kind of weird because the tallest line and the line pointing up and to the right are connected. another time-saver :).
as much as I've been obsessive about saving time writing letters, I can't shake the habit of making the little line through my lowercase z's :/.
lucas: but isn't rucker left-handed? would that make his slant actually a forward slant? I am not sure if I remember his handedness correctly.
wiki, "A forward slant indicates high emotional expressiveness"

Anyone else notice asemi's message tilts noticeably left...save for the word "Love"? It tilts noticeably right! :-o

I am withdrawn :|.
also I think I make the little line through my z's in the interest of differentiating them from 2s in a lot of math courses.

your v looks like an r, lucas. I like your k method, though. I might try that.
your e in Dear is encroaching on the D's space, Étrangère! also your i's and j's are interesting…

nestor's v is weird too.
my v's tail was more exaggerated than normal.

nothing is wrong - what are you scared of?
i think i like Étrangère's q the best :P
oops i should get in on this
here's my
script and
normal and
caps
oops normal got a little fucked.
caps are too intense!!
yeah but i use it sorta stylistically in notes and such
i don't find mine to appear too intense :) it's like those fonts that have smaller upper case letters for their non-caps letters..if you know what i mean...
small caps?
I don't know, yours look really scary :(
Étrangère
I am not a robot...
I like your caps, Danny :)
But I like your normal more. I think you win neatest handwriting so far.
dude dp! we have almost identical styles in how we write out our letters. compare your normal with mine. except for you obviously taking more care and using cleaner paper, our handwriting in 'normal' is pretty damn similar. what does it mean...wiki?
i'm gonna re-do mine tomorrow. my "v" looks like an "r," even to me.
stylized v, doesn't look like an r to me

I'm re-doing mine, too. Maybe next time my hands won't be shaking because of painkillers...

no re-dos!
why not?
Fsmart, yeah some things are strikingly similar. Notice to which extent you finish up your p in Sphinx compared to me! you drop your h's foot about the same as me too.
although there are certain things different, like tails on g and y.
g looks different too, but you 'ge' like i do :p
yeah a few differences but when i look at your normal i think 'that is my handwriting' :)
hey so
what happened to this thread?
the project completed?
anticlimactic!
this post has been archived.
you mean fsmart's comparisons weren't a satisfactory conclusion?
nestor's first post beckons

... and let the Earth be silent after ye.
