Here's a nifty casual I whipped up last week in an effort to create something with a bit of a vintage tweak. For all you creative types, it is purposely thin so a heavy outine will work better behind it.

glad you guys like it ... i know it isn't a perfect "fast casual," but considering I did this all with a mouse (no time for sketching!) and did it in a hurry, the results weren't half bad.
I usually don't supply an italic version, but when I skewed it in Corel, I could see that a lot of the letters had to be modified and the font rekerned in order to have a slant that looked good, something you don't wanna hafta do on the fly every time yer gettin' ready to make the sticky stuff!!!!!

i've been aiming a lot more toward "useful" lately ... nothing worse than hours of work on a font that looks really cool but ya really can't use!!!!!!!!

The response has been pretty good on this one so I'm starting to make plans for expanding the character set.
