you can love this and hate the new sprite redesign, not that you did, but just an FYI if you do, so don't.

hideous typeface imo
- jondj240
confused...
are you saying that pill and the sprite redesign have similarities?
if so, i don't see it.
- jondj240
i totally disagree with you rasko.
i think its very well constructed. Plus i've seen it in use and the piece was very nice.

I find that the 'p' in the sprite and the 'a' in the pill have similarly (awkward-ish) shapes, yes.
actually I'm really just avoiding work so disregard anything I say

that lowercase a needs to ease off the meth and stop taking advice from g.

craziness...NT went and got super conservative.

(Jun 12 06, 09:43)definitely not conservative here...I like the typeface, except for the a & g, which don't really seem to fit with what otherwise seems to be a direct homage to Franklin Gothic, Akzidenz, and DIN.
My favorite typeface at the moment, BTW, is Fedra, which is definitely not conservative...funky little bits are great as long as they seem pertinent, in my opinion.
To each his own...vive la difference!!

(Jun 12 06, 09:55)agreed!
but a, g, e characters are the flare that gives this very architectural typeface a uniqueness that i very much appreciate. but as you said above...to each his/her own.
good day.

nope, not a case of conservative, just those shapes look poorly executed and totally at odds withthe rest of the face, I dont like it, and that is my opinion.
