I stumbled on something I designed just recently and
for the life of me I can't remember which were the
faces I used. One thing I know for sure is they're
freeware fonts. I think this one's up Cheshire's alley.

Eduardo Recife's Porcelain is one of them. (the script one.) I know because we happened to design quite similar fonts at the same time without having ever seen each others work...
could the number be 'Crash numerals' or something by, ehhh, psyops or p22... Can't remember. Brain heating up...

Not really a cross post, where you were posting info, I was sort of babling...

Very good guys! But this was actually an elaborate
trick to wish Chesh happy birthday. (I should have added
"winkeys". I guess he's too busy celebrating...

I'm just being silly tonight...

Don't you agree Eduardo Recife's grunge fonts are among
the best around? I really like the aesthetics of it, especially
his treated scripts.

Yves, I would have to agree, been sitting (mostly used) but at the tope of my grunge portfolio! ;)

Hahahaha, don't worry BJ! As I said, that was just me
being rather silly.

I guess Hrant was right all these months ago.

Thanks, Yves and everyone! I know it's difficult to fathom, but I actually managed to be away from my computer on my birthday -- I was out on a boat off the coast of Monterey (California), watching the grey whale and Risso's dolphin migration. Lovely way to spend a birthday. And this is a great way to spend my day-after-birthday. Thanks again.

I hope you liked the "card". It's just a shame those
overzealous nincompoops :-) Kenn and BJ really
thought I couldn't remember the faces I used to
design a piece barely half an hour earlier and blew
my rather silly scheme to lure you into this thread
(chill guys I'm just pulling your leg!)

Be sure to let us know when you're tying the knot,
ya big hunk of matrimonial anticipation!

Sounds like a very Steinbeck birthday, did you top it of with a beer-milkshake?

Sorry that our stupidity ruined your masterplan... ;-)
