Nice set of glyphs...very readable even at PXL size.

I would lower the bowls of the p and q to the baseline.

Dear Mr. aphoria, brother in FS:
Thank you very much for your opinions about my recent FontStruction "Zancle". I've seen your work in the FontStruct's Gallery and I really like your work, I hope I've learned something from them. I'm still working on the glyphs "p" and "q" and other small details. There will be news soon. Thanks again.
Sincerely,
elmoyenique

This font reminds me of one of my fonts, squareplane. http://fontstruct.com/fontstructions/show/squareplane

perhaps your font has similar inspiration.

Dear Mr. ssaamm:
I think "Zancle" has no more resemblance to your font "Squareplane" that both have been produced with the wonderful FontStruct generator. A heavy sans serif like my "Zancle" is relatively easy to make, and I'm just beginning to create my firsts fonts, i'm a learner. A thousand thanks for your comments. elmoyenique

A good, strong, straightforward font, including a full More Latin set - excellent work.

I agree with aphoria about the p an q and also wonder whether the g would benefit from the same treatment ... but these are just personal feelings and it is the little differences that make a font unique (even if we are all working from the same bricks) :)

Dear Mr. p2pnut:
Thank you very much for your opinions so kind and supportive to my source "Zancle. You are a person I respect very much for your great work in typography and FontStruct in particular. I'm trying to see the letters "p", "q", "g" and "y" as you suggest them to me, but I'm hesitating, because the first way I've had to make them not to hinder them letters legible, and also brings a distinctive feature to the entire font. This is a big question in which I am working now (It's Not Easy Being Green). I am very grateful for his wise directions and I hope to resolve this issue as best as I know. And I ask you all to forgive my bad English, knowing that I am Spanish and English is still difficult for me. A thousand thanks again for all your attention to my job, I'm just an apprentice in Typography. elmoyenique.

This is just a (very small) difference of personal ideas - and your ideas are the important ones about your work :)

The great thing about FontStruct is that you can always clone your designs and try different ideas.

Your English is fine - no problem understanding you. My Spanish = 0 :(

This is a great font for using at pixel size.

Dear Friends and Teachers:
I'm enormously grateful to them for their comments, which I appreciate very much. And, as an apprentice that I am, I hear the voice of my teachers and I learn from them: Following your advice, here I present to you the small change from "Zancle" with the hope that the typo has improved, so that you can check the best readability. "Errando discitur" (= "Mistakenly learns") was as they said in ancient Rome. (Incidentally, in relation to making this source pixelated, how I do that thing in FS?).
Sincerely yours forever elmoyenique.
