Format Week Day 3


Thanks for the input so far, gang. As of today we're going for 6x6 with NO CLICK. I like the purity of NO CLICK myself. How about these font sizes? I like the 5, the 7 looks a little muddy. Actual digital fonts are out--too much work, so I hope you like my handwriting.

I know, Format Week is pretty boring, but this is all helping me build the best, most readable blog comic evar.

    I like 5 but 7 is actually fine too and your handwriting is super.

    I vote for 7!

    The 7 is nice and bold but the 5 seems to light... maybe a combination of the two? 7 for outlines and 5 for details? Too complicated? :)

    Plus, great representation of you. For those of you who don't get to see Nate at work, he really does look that cute.

    Any dog that says "hork" early in the morning has got to go.

    Awe, doggie might shut up in a few days. It might have to mature, depending on how old it is. Our dog Poo didn't shut it until last winter, and then it was just over a year. And then, it could judt need company. Or it's trying to be just plain annoying.

    Mindy, what? Nate has no nose when he works? Or sleeps? Intrigue!

    I prefer #5 personally. I think the 7 is just a tad too heavy except for things that need to be heavy and bold. The whole thing with the 7 feels like it is supposed to be more stylized than it is.

    And then when I imagine the detail in Chuck versus the mostly big shapes in today's dog panel, I really think that 7 is much too big.

    3 is too small for lettering, but might work for outlines. And the #1 would eat my tongue if I let it, which I will not do.

    Go with 5. Please.
    We hate all dogs at our house. People around here think their dogs should roam free.

    I read the 1 without a click. Size 5 works. Your handwriting works. No click works.
