    Larry - do you want to do all the missing letters or shall we split them into Caps and Lower case?

    I plan on doing all of them plus the numbers and other characters.

    Larry, let's share, okay?

    Christine and you both have pulled very accurate and artistic traces with the Burgeon set. I'd like to see more of this collaboration.

    Okay?

    Gare, Christine wants to do the Roundhead font so I am taking Morning Glory. Sharing is fine with me, I was just trying to answer Christine's question and in the process I thought I should trace all the characters and add the missing ones as well. Is that OK?

    I think Christine should head up the Roundhead Font Initiative, right here. Christine?

    I know she's a Mod on a different thread, but she's expressed interest and here's the opportunity for Mods to actually do supervisor work instead of posting "Good Idea!", and trolling for spam 8 hours a day!

    C'mon, this is what we all came here for—tg is a group, and we need to prove to other forums that we can successfully contribute to the web designers and artists at large by creating free, expertly crafted typefaces for the community.

    So if you're reading this, post back, for Goodness' Sake.

    My Best,

    Gary, who isn't even supposed to be Moderating this thread.

    I will volunteer to help Christine with this font. Christine how many glyphs have you done so far? I love the fancy "and" (ampersand) this font has. we should do some punctuation as well such and perhaps copyright and trademark symbols?

    Sorry for any delay - time differences again - fortunately I am an early morning person 5 AM here.

    Larry - I am happy if you want to do the other font.

    Frances - I have already done some preliminary work on the Caps, Lower case and numbers and would be more than happy if you want to tackle the symbols.

    Thanks Gare for your confidence.

    Hi Francis & Gary,

    I mentioned the name of the font because it seems it was interpreted as having 'rounded' corners.
    May I offer my version; here are the capitals and I'll work on the others.

    Here is the punctuation plus a couple. I hope this is OK, if not let me know.
