Font Development Plans.

logansrogueHey all.
Just thought I'd get the news out that I'm developing my fonts at a professional level for release at myfonts.com. I've applied for seller status, and hopefully this means that I can start selling my fonts properly and making a bit of pocket money.
The really good thing is that I've now learnt to make international characters and accents, so all of you from other countries will be able to write words like 'senor' with the proper little thing above the n, and Renee with the proper little thing above the e. And it'll have umlauts, tildes, graves and acutes, proper quote marks, upside down exclamation marks and question marks (for my friends in Spanish speaking countries). There will be copyright symbols, R symbols, TradeMark symbols and basic fractions.
The fonts I'll be working on for selling status in the next weeks:
- Potedaia
- Gabscroll
- Nag Hammadia (new font)
- Amaryllis
- NaceySwash
If there are any sorts of fonts you'd like to see, please, request it. I'm talking calligraphic fonts, here, fonts that can be drawn by hand. Lemme know.
I'll probably be selling the fonts for about $30 US. I'll be also releasing free versions of the fonts without the fancy ligatures and symbols. They'll be titling fonts only. A preview of my latest font (still being fine-tuned) under the cut.

And how cool is it to be able to add "Freelance Font Designer" to a resume?

:D

Well, I did my icon for the world cup, yeah. But I'm lazy.
