Brilliant! I wish I had thought of it! how'd you get the coffee to only cover one spot? or did you edit it alittle so some spots were more visible? (I've never made a typeface, would interested in the process lol)

Definately Photoshoped it too you know where needed.
To my surprise is; this is not even the final image of the typeface.
The final composition was a complex one:

lol, your very good at creating typedface. Your comic art is pretty amazing too. I'm guessing your in graphic design? I've been thinking about going into the same career feild, but I'm starting to have second thoughts, seems everyone want to be a graphic designer.....Any tips?

Yes, Graphic Design is a versatile subject. It ranges from illustration,Typography,Screen printing, Logo design, Poster design, Editorial Design, Photography and many more.I cannot think of a world without graphic Design, in fact it would be a dark age without it.
And everyone wants to be a designer but not everyone is a designer. Graphic Designers are here to make solutions for visual problem and the best way to do it is 'clearity'. By all means, If you wish to choose a career such as this, make sure that you love the idea of being a Visual language for the world.

I do love that idea, i see just about everything visualy already. I took an Advertising class in high school and my teacher said i had a real knack for it, i guess I just have to hope for the best. I know when i look at advertisements now i really judge them and try to think of ways to make it so much more eye catching. Plus I love the physchology related to graphic design. I mean seriously we're brain washing the masses. Kinda makes you feel like a sheep blindly following the shepard.
--yup thats right sheep, buy my purfume-Why you ask? Because the picture says you'll be happier and have a better life with it---*sheep buys purfume*---
lol sorry for my randomness and I also know-as I'm a pretty bad impulse buyer advertisments make me a sheep too

In the end, its the MEDIA that controls and manipulate this world.
So why be the resistance when you can be one of the one who controls?

lol- media....seriously though, we would be no where without it.
ps, thanks for talking to me..really didn't think you would. most popular people just ignore most coments, kinda expect it. speacially when the artist is actually well known and popular

come on' I know wht u mean, I've felt the same in DA couple'o time;
there're ppl out there think they 've reach the end of the line
and stops bothering abt the little people- but how foolish can one be
without friends? even if tht person is a stranger. We r all strangers here in DA
its the Art which has a familiar face and we all shld bond together with its help.
BTW, I didn't get ur name?
I'm mark.

My name is Kirsten. and i agree, I mean i can unserstand if it's difficult to respond when you have hundreds of comments and such, but i would deff make an effort.
I enjoy deviantart quite a bit. I live in alaska and it's hard to find a good art comunity, so deviantart helps me "get out", at least alittle bit anyway. And we're all strangers at some point.
