FS

For the FS script competition I tried to copy my efforts at calligraphy with a goose quill. I have added more diacritics, punctuation & symbols.

Will the person who voted this a "3" please contact me: I need to know what you think I need to improve. Voting "3" means there is a massive problem and your job is to tell me how to improve, do not downvote without comment to help me. Thanks.

@ winty: thanks !

Comment by Aeolien 26th may 2013

Probably that dumb old font troll. No people I know on FS would ever do something like that.

@Aeolien : Someone just rated all the scriptcomp entries and guess who received the worst rate ? And the winner is... (Drum Roll) Me of course with 2/10!

Comment by Abneurone Fluid Types 26th may 2013

Well, this gets a 10/10 from me.

@ winty & AFT: yes, hm > :(((((
Seeing what kind of font gets the floorlevel vote it looks like someone is very jealous of the skills used, the fact that certain people publish fonts very regularly because they are talented, and he shows his envy through a low vote.
I would welcome a different voting system to stop trolls messing with averages while not contributing in a positive way: can vote who has published 20 fonts to achieve an average of 6.8, or who has taken part in the live feed with at least 1 daily log-in for a month, or who has voted at "7" or over on 40 fonts/ "9" or over on 30 fonts with a comment on each font...

@ P2P: Thanks a lot :) with you established fontstructors I know that you are sincere and knowledgeable in your comments and voting and I appreciate that. It makes the work involved worth it and the possible improvements and learning into a real pleasure.

Forget the trolls - they are just a waste of time and space. Two things are really important: (a) the opinions of people you trust ... and most of all (b) whether you are happy with your work.

Have a lovely holiday :)

@ P2P Thanks for that moral support, you are right, what a troll thinks is of no importance. What you experts think is important as I can learn from you, and then I can feel happy with what I have done. Holiday will be great once it starts :)

I have to agree with p2pnut, don't care about the stupid font-trolls, they are useless and dumb. What matters is what YOU think of YOUR font!

For ScriptComp: added most of "more Latin" accented letters, added more punctuation and symbols. Will work more on it later.
