[edit] Outsider Comments
- This topic is greatly relevant to my study. I am interested in participating in a future incarnation of this tutorial and look forwards to seeing what you all produce. The resources on this page are very useful to an onlooker like myself. I greatly appreciate this content. thank you, -- BoazSender - 14 Mar 2006
- I would love to see some kind of exhibit or display of your work/findings at the end of term. -- AngelaSheehan - 15 Mar 2006
- Here's a question for you guys...I am currently designing a website for the computer center, and was wondering if during your exploration of typography you've come across anything about using font/type in websites? Or do you have any personal opinions about what would be best representative of 'technology','Bennington', and 'user-friendly'? Also, I've spotted some of those big letters in VAPA - they look fantastic! -- AngelaSheehan - 05 Apr 2006
