- HUNK23, on 04/22/2008, -0/+61If you look closely, there are robots.
- mbhe, on 04/22/2008, -2/+54Great creativity display, cool. Now do a videogame with such characters.
- bullsfan03, on 04/22/2008, -0/+38Phew! Close call, I almost missed that!
- 7travis, on 04/22/2008, -16/+48If you look closely, there are letters in each robot.
- luchid, on 04/22/2008, -1/+21That would be awesome. I always wanted to kick the crap out of Comic Sans. If only it was socially acceptable to do that to the people who USE it...
- joshzweig, on 04/22/2008, -1/+20Oh my god!
There's a hidden message in the robots!
It says "alskjlasjfoirh;';l#lkjoijo" ! - zaii7, on 04/22/2008, -5/+18I, for one, welcome our new font bot overlords
- milkmage, on 04/22/2008, -2/+14wow! cool! they should call them
FONTBOTS
(or something) - D3koy, on 04/22/2008, -0/+12He was doing Sans-Serifs....It says so at the bottom
- Halokhan, on 04/22/2008, -3/+14Now do a WingdingsBot. Give that font a purpose.
- DeathJux, on 04/22/2008, -0/+11Tell your typography teacher to SHUT. UP.
- seantubridy, on 04/22/2008, -2/+12A nice tribute to robots and typography - two of my favorite things. It would be fun to see these with a joint system and animated.

- samfishercell, on 04/22/2008, -0/+10I feel that you're trying to make a joke...but I can't shake the nagging feeling that you're telling the truth.
- Chebsi, on 04/22/2008, -2/+11But Comic Sans is soooo awesome. It's the only font me and my friends on myspace use.
- AuburnTigers, on 04/22/2008, -0/+8It has a purpose. It's used by Microsoft to claim that Jews were responsible for the WTC attacks. duhhhhh
- rayearth42, on 04/22/2008, -0/+7I shat bricks.
- luchid, on 04/22/2008, -1/+8Die in a fire!
- weeeezzll, on 04/22/2008, -1/+7If you look closely you will be looking closely...
- techobo, on 04/22/2008, -0/+5Here's Mine
http://img396.imageshack.us/img396/2264/robotvj3.j ... - vade79, on 04/22/2008, -4/+9Reminds me of the ASCII/ANSI-ART BBS days...except putting your characters in any rotation you want, cheater!
- NoJobBob, on 04/22/2008, -0/+4I'm going to try and do this now.
- samfishercell, on 04/22/2008, -0/+4No, including Times New Roman on that list would be like forgetting to mention Jesus Christ on a list of Non-Biblical Deities.
- charlietuna, on 04/22/2008, -1/+5Open wordpad (write.exe), change the font to Wingdings, make it large for impact, say 48 point, now type NYC. Whoa Nellie! Coincidence? How did Henry Ford get at my fonts?
- seantubridy, on 04/22/2008, -0/+3Yes, yes there are.
- Wilsomatic, on 04/22/2008, -1/+4Watch out for the arch nemesis of Helvetica: Helvetica BLACK *Bwahaha*
- Llanowar, on 04/22/2008, -0/+3If you look closely, there are pixels in the letters.
- bugsy187, on 04/22/2008, -2/+5These illustrations have inventiveness, but my typography teacher absolutely hates stuff like this.
- reflex768, on 04/22/2008, -3/+6Not a bad idea, mbhe. I'd like to play it.
- dinostabOMG, on 04/22/2008, -0/+3That guy is awesome, from a technical point of view. But I don't think you can compare these two modes of working, they're not really all that related. It would be like comparing Mondrian to Raphael.
- WauloK, on 04/22/2008, -2/+4When you see it...
oh, never mind. - inactive, on 04/22/2008, -0/+2If you keep looking, after about 2 minutes a scary face will pop up with really loud music and you will poo yourself in the pants. mostly
- 0x0000ff, on 04/22/2008, -0/+2Times New Roman is a serif typeface.
From the page: "Series of typographic illustrations based on my favourite sans-serifs." - jebberwocky, on 04/22/2008, -1/+3My interview with the author - Jonathon Yule
http://macroselfian.ning.com/forum/topic/show?id=1 ... - b3mus3d, on 04/22/2008, -0/+2The thumbs up sign is so hilariously random. I just imagine some stereotypical terrorist grinning and giving a thumbs up.
- Algaroth, on 04/22/2008, -0/+1I can't believe I went ahead and tried that but I'm glad I did. Funny stuff.
- bjarkebech, on 04/22/2008, -0/+1New iPhone background.
- Lancer28, on 04/22/2008, -0/+1Ahh the good ole' days before the Interwebs
- Chalks777, on 04/22/2008, -1/+2Ok.
- DeathJux, on 04/23/2008, -0/+1At that time, you kindly remind him of the old adage:
"Those that can, do; those that can't, teach"
See if you can pinpoint the moment when his fragile heart shatters, and his tears leap from their ducts like so many flooding rivers. - retzed, on 04/22/2008, -0/+1Have fun playing with the alphabet monsters!
http://www.orgdot.com/abc/ - dustin32, on 04/22/2008, -1/+2You WILL ***** bricks.
- Culero, on 04/22/2008, -0/+1out of curiousity, wth is that supposed to be? I can't make anything out of it.
- RustyJ, on 04/22/2008, -1/+2OMG STAR OF DAVID+PLANE+ TOWERS OMFGOMFG
- pigducksheep, on 04/22/2008, -0/+1no
- CrushThemTorg, on 04/22/2008, -0/+1I will let the metal ones eat all my medicine only if it's Akzidenz Grotesk bot. The classics are always the best.
- Atsumori, on 04/22/2008, -1/+2Awesome, now I want one of their shirts of it on it.
- analogkid01, on 04/22/2008, -0/+1Actually it was "NYC" = Star of David, skull-n-crossbones, and a thumbs-up sign.
- bugsy187, on 04/23/2008, -0/+1He's actually really good with type. He'd criticize these illustration as very cliche' and that drawing a picture with type is something that everyone tries to do when they first start in graphic design.
- Aitese, on 04/22/2008, -1/+1That's racist
