Hope that someone recognizes this font, my last one was uncommented, though I thought it wasn't bad.

Wow. I love how gnarled this looks. And the numbers are great.

Did a poster with german text...

sorry for the bad quality, i did it much to small so i had to make it bigger.

Comment by Frederic F. (Star Script Writer) 15th august 2010

A very nice up-down movement to it. Woodcut-ish. I suggest flipping the D and U horizontally (push A, then Shift+H) and the ’ and ” vertically (A then Shift+V).

It has a nice hand-carved look. Good work :) 10/10

Comment by p2pnut 16th august 2010

I'm really glad to here those kind words. :) Thank you two.

@thalamic: Good suggestions, especially for the U, so now you can better differ it from the V, and the D looks nicer. But I'm not sure about flipping the quote marks. I tried it the way you think of at first, but the height... I know that it's clearer that they should be right quote marks, flipped. Basically, I decided against your suggestion to have the same height overall.

very nice work I love it. clever design

Apostrophegate ;)
I agree with thalamic, should be shifted and up-side down. In french we use it a lot and I try your font with the option "user input" and look a bit confusing like you left it.

don't missinterpret the with "paired quotation marks "

Unicode ref:
U+2019 is preferred for apostrophe.
Preferred characters in English for paired quotation marks are U+2018 & U+2019

look how pro font manage it

Ok, now I think I understand. Or at least I hope so... ;) As the fact is that I'm german I'm a bit confused cause I must admit I'm not sure if I took your comment right. Are my changes the way you meant them to be. But however, thank you that you took your time for this nice comment. :)

Oh, and I've added something very important for me: low quotation marks...

Comment by afrojet 17th august 2010

Wow! My first Top Pick. :) Thank you very much, I was really surprised and a big bunch of feel-good hormones has travelled to my brain and made me smile.

I haven't shared it, but I did clone your font and added a lowercase because I thought your uppercase was pretty cool.

If you want it, I'll share my clone long enough for you to copy it, then I will unshare it.
