    Exclamation Holiday Typography Fun!

    I know it's not quite December yet , and this may be a bit early, but I thought I'd start this now to give everyone plenty of time to participate

    The idea is to create a Holiday greeting with the emphasis on typography. Kind of like a font play but instead of having a set font to use I'm giving you a holiday theme!

    Here is a little something to get the festive ideas flowing! http://www.smashingmagazine.com/2009...ay-typography/

    Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.

    You are quite welcome Larry.

    Perhaps submissions here could also be posted or linked to up in the Holiday Mantle thread for Gary to include in the mantle scene.

    This may not be much but here is something. I started out wanting to do something with pure text but it evolved into this. Merry Christmas Everyone.

    That's lovely Larry. Thanks for participating.

    I just want to say too that my last post was made before I knew about Bill. However I do think that we should carry on with this and all the holiday related threads, so all are welcome to join in.
