Details

Description:
inspired by oldschool video racing games, but also by lapcounters in formula one. Every dot of this's got a size of 5x5 bricks!!! the reason for choosing such a superhigh resolution, was the idea to create an italic angle, which is impossible to do with the FSapplet. This is followed by a LOWER case plus numbers, called "pole position l/c". however...cheers,community and fontlovers!

the preview window of this doesn't finish to load... neither this is download- or cloneable!
any ideas?

every dot of this is made of 6x6 bricks... its huge, maybe that is the problem, but i can not edit, or clone and split it. HELP!

Hey kix. This may be one of the few FontStructions affected by our recent move. We’ve added it to the list and will get back to you soon.

ok, this is finished for now.
impossible to add anything, because it still undownloadable :/

edit:
I cloned this to save the lower case, but even though i reduced the letters to 29 i still get a "font generation error"...
Is there really no way to help me with this?

Great job, it is a shame that does not download. I had the same problem with my first try on Stag Bold Dot.

As an unexpected side-affect of recent changes to the site. It downloads!

yay!
So, it's about time to publish the lower case + numerals :)

It's called "pole position l/c".

this is cool. nothing like getting to problematic fonts to download. i've had a few myself and i've wondered on occasion would it be necessary to modify the creative process to build the font set within workable dimensions. fortunately, our admins always seems to have a hat trick or two to help us along. this is one your unsung best. probably deserving a pink dot which seems to be harder to get these days :(
