worst part about having a cold: cough drops make my pepsi taste like shit

TheMuffinCoder

Hey guys!

I just made a logo for my friend

Icy Defiance

ooh, for once I can actually say that's a perfect font choice

an artist might have something to say about blending or whatever, but I'm not an artist. looks pretty nice to me.

@TheMuffinCoder I liked your muffin scene yesterday. I think the distortion/perspective is a bit off, maybe I just like it more uniform. The "N" and "T" stand out too much from the rest

TheMuffinCoder

Thanks MLM!

Icy Defiance

yeah I would at least put the T on the same baseline as the rest of the word

TheMuffinCoder

12:29 AM

I was going to do that too

But then it looked weird with the other letters

Icy Defiance

raising it up like that would be a good idea if you wanted to emphasize that letter for some reason. in that case I would also make that letter a different color.

TheMuffinCoder

Too spread out

Thanks for the info

Icy Defiance

maybe make the top of the T a little narrower if it's too spread out

TheMuffinCoder

I'll take that into consideration for my future renders :D

Oh the letters look like that because

I had a plane and I subdivided it

Then I simply filled in the squares/made some triangles

So I couldn't really move the letters around in order to maintain the grid

MLM

You don't have to maintain the grid

Making a font on a grid can be challenging

TheMuffinCoder

12:37 AM

Thank MLM

I was making it on a grid so that it'll be easy for me to scale/duplicate around

Icy Defiance

very few fonts actually maintain a grid perfectly, especially on the horizontal axis

the font we're typing with here doesn't do that

TheMuffinCoder

I made sure my letters werent touchy or too far/too near to each other

@IcyDefiance t h i s f o n t? whoa!

Icy Defiance

this, on the other hand, is a fixed width font. this maintains the grid you're talking about.

TheMuffinCoder

oh I can see the differences

Well thanks for all the tips guys

i have to re-render it to find the youtube art banner resolution

Almo

(I don't mean that sarcastically, either)

Icy Defiance

don't need another minecraft or terraria clone, but there are other pretty awesome uses for voxels

Almo

Resogun is all voxels

Icy Defiance

well, that is unless someone wants to make minecraft with something that isn't java and can actually perform well
