It struck me earlier today, whilst looking through the Madethought 'site, that the kerning for the R in the Reiss logo was a little off.
I'm no uber expert on such matter (not even an unter :( ), but what do you guys think?
Part of me wants to shunt that fucker right a little.
- Just a smidge, mind.Nairn
- lol... I thought the same when I saw it for the firsttime :)moamoa
- is that really a problem of the logo or just flash being an asshole? i agree it's a bit off though7point34
- *phew!*
That means there's hope for me yet!Nairn - It's like that everywhere, 7.34.
I'd hope they use a vector symbol for their logo, rather than straight text!Nairn - i'll sharpen the pitchforks, you ready the torches7point34
- I'll pass it on. ;)Concrete
- Oooh, less of the torches - I was hoping for a little plundering - they do do nice clothes, see?Nairn
- Oh, did Madethought themselves do the branding, C? I just assumed they were a client.Nairn
- Be sure to convey my spitting disgust - and tell them all their models have sharp knees! :)Nairn
- knees... ?
shit! i've sharpened the wrong things. that explains all those knobby pitchforks7point34 - I think so, E. Not certain though.
I agree with you though.Concrete - to me its the i.********

Someone needs to invent auto-squinting glasses, to aid kerners.
I actually began hurting my eyes the other night, trying to kern an abortion of a script font together.

I've told this story before but here it goes again.
When I saw the YEAH YEAH YEAHS open for the White Stripes years ago they had this crappy huge banner behind them that had their band name on it in huge 6000pt Arial that looked like it was type set in Word. I couldn't enjoy the show because I kept looking at the horrible kerning that made their band look like it was the..

I'm thinking I'll create a program that does kerning for you. I'll call it Autokern®.

Optical works great on some fonts... anyway do you kern long texts? what is the limit?
- stewart0
// do it like Pentagram. design a CI with all copy left justified and you don't have to care about kerning anymore.

Kern your shit by hand, and stop all the whining. Otherwise you're no better than a damn secretary.
