Description:
This is an attempt to extend acceptability of the bitmap Slightly with sub size dots and "twist joins". I ended up doing a little kerning in a fontlab to get it to where I wanted. That version is not downloadable - sadly enough.

You are insane, man! I think the lowercase m isn't wide enough.

Hmm maybe so. I will try a fuller m.

Altered the m & made some other improvements. I can see another version coming now.

What letter would I look at to understand what you mean by "twist joins"?

Look at the Cap K. If you look closely you will see there is extra black almost touching - it looked like a twist in a sausage so I called them twist joins. This is not a serious term of art as used in the font industry; just an attempt at description. Sorry that wasn't clear.

Gotcha. The "party streamer" effect!
