Just giving Wade Dynamic a test drive. It even made me feel like a real sign writer! Painted with a mask, then hand-outlined and shadowed, for the boat of a walleye fisherman. I feel like I was cheating on Chesham Sans. Love....Jill

I've got that font too. It really has impact and the broad strokes cry for an embedded image. I haven't used it yet, but I will be soon, thanks for the inspiration Jill. Nice Job. -------------------- Duncan Wilkie aka signdog http://www.comsign.ca Edmonton, Alberta, Canada

Darn it Miles that was a good idea. After I spilled thinner on the sign while unmasking it, I got a bad smudge. I nearly couldn't get it off until I got out the Comet cleanser. But I almost had to put a fish head or something on it for a patch. Thanks for the compliments but this layout is pretty much due to the coolness of Arthur's alphabet. Love....Jill

Well done, Arthur & Jill- it'll have lots of potential- I can see it becoming more popular than Snapper Script! (edited to add: just bought it, and also got the edited additions to Tideway script at the same time, plus a couple of other useful fonts while I was there- enjoy spending the commission, Arthur!)
