The font used on the gateposts of the former Haghill Public School in the East End of Glasgow is just superb. Designed by A. Lindsay Miller and built in 1904, the school was demolished in 2022, but it's hoped some of the original features, including the gateposts, will be incorporated in the affordable housing planned for the site.

A mounted print of this photo is now available on my online shop at https://www.thisismyglasgow.com/product/haghill-public-school-ghost-sign-print-mounted-size-10-inch-by-12-inch/

Was eine großartige Idee von Abby Haddican, einer Designerin aus Minnesota: Eine aktivistische Font, die sich als andere Font ausgibt und bestimmte Worte ändert.

Hello you wonderfully wierd fedizens. I'm looking for something, something so obscure someone here is bound to know it.

I'm looking for a font that 'feels'™ like old IBM terminals. I know of the 3270 font, however I find it a bit hard to read.

It's for a book, where I will use it for "forum posts" and "short messages". So, it'll be used for prose, but short.

I could use a regular monospace font, but would prefer something a bit more 80s.

I needed a small-scale, small-caps, small-pox (no?) pixel font for a project so I made this: https://somepx.itch.io/pixel-font-jewel

it can be yours too, for a fairly low price

@liaizon There’s a really solid write-up of how to do something like this using free tools. I love the font they made: Sans Bullshit Sans. https://pixelambacht.nl/2015/sans-bullshit-sans/

Hey! 👋 Looking for some feedback on these glpyhs (Cyrillic, Etc).

This is going to be for an updated and revamped version of my font Endless Love.

Keep in mind I'm having to deal with style and size restrictions when designing these!

Thanks!

Sorry to be a bore could do with some #font identity help.

Trying to find something where the S is like this. I am picturing some 80's car manufacturer.

I did try a find font by upload service, but I think I am looking for something sort of classic. (I wouldn't mind if it's a variant of a heavy arial or helvetica but those S's are much more rounded of course).
