Hey Crew.... I brought up the question at the zoo do you print or write. I noticed everyone has a unique style of signatures that they sign their panels with as well.
I have printed since public school Is the trend true that most creative people print?
So lets see what you got 1)abc's and 123's 2) write a sentence 3) and your signature

Actually Steve, I am a certified graphoanalyist. Printing means that you "have something to hide". Your handwriting shows your true personality, fears, strengths, weakneses, etc while your signature shows how you want to be perceived.
The signature above shows that they have too many irons in the fire; that they are very cautious; very analytical; enjoys a more cultured lifestyle; has very fast brain processing ability; likes to see the "big picture", get all the facts later.

You'd never guess that I learned to write in Catholic school huh. Spent too long as a waitress I guess. I usually write because I press so hard when I print that it wears out my hand. Love....Jill

My handwriting has changed a lot over the years. I'd say in the last 3 years, I've gone to almost strictly caps when printing anything.
I used to have this big long flowing, complicated signature - writing out Kimberly Ann Zanetti with lots of twists and swirls. It took too long so when I got married I messed around and came up with the easiest signature I could.
Edited to add that I will write only on lined paper for the most part...I even buy lined post-it notes. I guess I like things to be neat and lined up - which is pretty funny considering the fact that my office is a raging MESS right now.

It sure is hard to do cursive without making mistakes. I remember writing long letters in cursive. Those were the days. Strangely, when I'm in practice, my handwriting is very similar to that of my parents.
My mind wanders. And that's not a good thing, 'cause it's too small to be out there alone. Posts: 3129 | From: Tooele, UT | Registered: Mar 2005

Russ, you're right, my handwriting does resemble my dad's too. Mine is more sloppy though, I blame the computer! I'm holding my breath for Ricky to tell me what's wrong with me

No kidding...
When I was a kid, I wrote in cursive, and I could barely read it, but late in high school, I decided to work on my handwriting, so I took some of my dad's letters, and started practing. My dad has the best writing that I had ever seen. Mine is still a pitiful copy of his, but a lot of people tell me that they love my writing style.

My hand-writing wasn't bad, but I decided to practice up... so I randomly picked a font and practiced and practiced until my writing looked just like it... Once you get good, you can barely tell the difference from the real thing... I messed up on one of the letters, but it's hard to be perfect...
You should see the people behind me in line at Walmart as I painstakingly sign my name in Old English...

I dabbled w/ handwriting analysis about 8-9 years ago. Pretty interesting stuff. From what I can remember I could only tell you who here(out of the above samples) is attentive to detail, who can be forgetful, who likely has more sex drive (wohoo), who has good self esteem, and who is open,honest and talkative. With the actual sample in hand you can tell a lot more based upon line angles, pressure, etc. Rick is certified though wich means he actually studied and took the test. Tru anylists like Rick could probably tell you what you had for breakfast(haha) It really is an accredited science. But it's even more fun as a conversation starter at the local pub.

Bill you're very right; it is a LOT of fun at a party or any sort of gathering. Once you start nailing people everybody wants in on it. I did send an IM to Kimberly and Steve telling them what was revealed in theirs. Kim said that I nailed her but I haven't heard from Steve. I use it for a lot of things but mostly for hiring purposes. I've never seen it fail. It's not used in America much by the public but it is used extensively by the CIA, FBI, NSA, etc and it is considered *the* most accurate psychological evaluation. J. Caesar used it and so did "Nappy" Bonappart. "Hmmmmmm... Brutus your handwriting reveals that you have hidden agression and are rebelous towards authority figures." I've also collected handwriting samples from a particular competitor and analyzed him as well; that gave me a ton of insight into his psyche and helped me to deal very effectively with him. He sold the store and moved to Macon within a year. It's so cool to find another H.A. on the board!!

It's pretty hard to decypher handwriting done with a marker. You can't tell the pressure and about 80% of the traits get blurred. But I have my doubts as to the slim pickins.
