Figured this is the place to ask...
I have never designed a font but would like to. Are there any good reference places online? Not necessarily a 'how-to from scratch' but more like advice taking it from sketches to flushing out a polished font.

thanks!

Flattered. Yes, but also a little weirded out.
I'm not very worship worthy. Honest.


To your question m leavitt, where do you live?
I ask, because I'd suggest taking a class from someone.
I just realized you might be asking more about the digitizing process. Is that your main question?
