>Shameless

There’s nothing wrong with promotion of a good thing! Probably should be in the ’release’ forum though.

Anyway, congratulations, a fine achievement.

I loved the free one you gave away a while back but was sad that I didn’t have punctuation. Nice to see this get to a commercial state! Nice work!

Shame is highly overrated. All my teaspoons have those craptastic brown stains. How do you get that stuff off. Oh god, look at my teeth.

Wowie, I didn’t think anyone outside of Japan has even heard of Eleki Boom! You rock.

“ironic cute” is right. I will always have a soft spot in my heart for this one. Viva Haley!

Very cute! It’s cheaper at Myfonts, does that affect how much you get Haley?

Canada Type lists two prices on My Fonts - a less expensive one for personal use and one a little more for commercial use.

I believe usage is the only difference.

Myfonts doesn’t make that distinction.

So if you buy it for personal use and then decide you want to use it on a job, you need to go back and pay them an additional $5? That seems a bit convoluted.

Lovely.

Does anyone license fonts for personal use? I have never considered that.

Ironic cute. Are they talking about you or the font? I suppose the two are inseparable…

John Collins talked about this ’trend’ at the Biz of Type event. CanadaTypez was an early adaptor apparently, wonder how it’s going for them?

You could compare this to Adobe making high- and low-end versions of Photoshop — the former is for photographers and designers, has more features, and is more expensive, while the latter is a simplified, less expensive version, for people who want to fix up their family snapshots but are not pro photographers.

It’s a shame your name isn’t listed somewhere on that page. How would I know you made this if I had stumbled across it some other way?!

Self-Promo should never be considered shameful.

Nice piece of work. Congrats!

As for personal vs commercial use, if there were a significant price difference, I’d be licensing a lot more fonts from third parties and doing it with a “personal” license. But that’s just me.

I think the interesting question is whether people’s total income goes up with this alternative licensing scheme. John Collins says that apparently it has, and the foundries that tried it are really happy with the results.

Regards,
