Ha-ha! It's amazing how an outline font with an x-height of 6 pixels outdoes a lot of the supersized-stretchedbricked-beziersimulating- fancydecorated fontstructions (mine included)! :)

Here is a sample (featuring HAUS SC)!

Thanks Em42!

The good old times of C64 revisited, where (almost) all fonts where based on a 7x7 grid ;)

To me it was funny to observe how in this small size any pixel causes a big effect and ought to shape a curve or an edge.

Q, c, s are absolutely brilliant in an already brilliant font. Thank you for the walk down the C64 memory lane.

Also, the ultra clean sample using my #1 favorite fontstruction (Haus SC) is perfection in minimal design layouts.

I have sketches for something like this, but you beat me to it. Nice job, too! Cheers.

O.M.G. I wanted to vote it 10 but I got here too late. (I discovered stumbleupon.com a few days ago and it swallowed me whole for a few days)
