My first attempt at a script font. Did you know that out of over 4000 fontstructions, there are only 40 in the category at this time? That's like 1%. Here's to increasing the percentage. Hopefully I'll be able to do an uppercase.

Hah! Somehow you've managed to prove and disprove that phrase all at once.

Comment by Stephen Coles (Stewf) 19th december 2008

Good point. The ones on offer are pretty intimidating, however. Thalamic's in particular.

Comment by intaglio 19th december 2008

yeah, make me think of "ceci n'est pas une pipe" of duchamps.

..not duchamps, magritte

Thanks, all!

@Stewf: I'm working on a newer phrase that goes something like this> "Some fonts you can only FontStruct." It seems to be more empowering for my favorite software app.

@intaglio: The script fonts are truly inspiring. I just saw thalamic's new hello. He makes it look sooooo easy!

@cam.ill: "Ceci n'est pas une fontstruction." René Magritte is my all-time favorite surrealist painter.

Marcel Duchamp's "Nude Descending a Staircase" is also one of my favorite kinetic paintings. It is a most beautiful 'explosion in a shingle factory.' Duchamp's statement coincidentally does apply to FontStructors:

"The creative act is not performed by the artist alone; the spectator brings the work in contact with the external world by deciphering and interpreting its inner qualifications and thus adds his contribution to the creative act."
(Marcel Duchamp)
