...and if 'vague' does not mean 'wave' in French, blame Google Translate.

Interesting way to lay out the glyphs. It adds a sense of randomness when looking at the sample text in the preview.

Comment by intaglio 4th june 2009

very stylish... and yeah, vague does mean wave in french. looks like for the first time google translate got something right, haha...
the only critics i have is that it would have been more convenient to make all the "upwards" characters on the uppercase and all the "downwards" on the lowercase... but then that would have come at the cost of losing the effect in the abc-preview mode, exposing this nice font to the wellknown "i'm gonna give it a 1 if it doesn't impress me on first glance" effect, which would have been sad... so: reasonable choice.;)
anyway, keep up the good work!

Thanks for positive feedback everyone. :)

@shasta: Good to know GT got vague right. As per your suggestion, the sorted version of this fontstruction is now live. Could GT be right twice in a row? ;)
