  1. The FONT Project

    Hi Fred, We have discussed this before, elsewhere. I disagree that there is no room for improvement. I do not know how your project determines what character belongs to what font, but I go by the old adage, "There is more than ONE WAY to skin a cat!" I am amused by your royal proclamation...
  2. The FONT Project

    https://www.fedex.com/en-us/about/history.html I agree that CURRENTLY, computers have trouble with raster images, and deciding what is "black" and what is "white" when trying to see the edge of a fuzzy letter. Better CODING would resolve that issue. Right. It would be called The FONT...
  3. The FONT Project

    Here in the little town of Franklin, KY., there is the old jail house. it is a limestone building that served as the original jail for Simpson county. Now it is filled with huge, old, mahogany bookcases that reach the high ceilings. Those bookcases are packed with hundreds ... perhaps more...
  4. Plywood Yard Art

    Way to encourage people to carry on the trade. :omg2: Joe
  5. Plywood Yard Art

    Large bottles of CHILL PILLS are on sale right now at COSTCO. Joe
  6. Plywood Yard Art

    No one is yelling at you. Well, no one worth your time or attention, anyway. The fact of the matter is, long before you needed the government's blessing to do ordinary things like fishing, and hunting, and making signs that you may or may not sell, America was a FREE country. You didn't NEED...
  7. The FONT Project

    I am looking for people who either have exceptional computer coding skills, or at least spare money to HIRE such people, in order to successfully create The FONT Project. ALL FONTS are just shapes, regardless of their size or proportions, despite being italicized, or stretched, or otherwise...
  8. Plywood Yard Art

    I have been toying with the idea of making some yard art like this. I tend to do everything BIG, so I have wanted to build a 30 foot tall baby with blocks or something, out of plywood in the same way, and put it where it can be seen from the main highway. Maybe it would become a landmark...
  9. Is Anyone Hiring?

    I believe you meant to write, "I am looking for a NEW JOB so that I can quit my OLD JOB." Or am I missing something here? Joe
  10. Franklin Kentucky

    Are we? I am out in the county, a few miles away from Franklin, KY. Joe
  11. Dimensional letters thickness vs height vs distance

    I am flattered, that you might presume I have some knowledge on this topic, based on my previous responses. I really do not. I just went in search of information that does not require me to reinvent the wheel. People have already done studies to try to determine the best READABILITY...
  12. Brick Vinyl

    I guess so. I always assumed thoe brick signs were painted. I will have to go find one and examine it more closely. Joe .
  13. Brick Vinyl

    Well I'll be! I do pay attention to signage, but I honestly do not believe I have ever seen that before. I would have thought that the vinyl would become horribly distorted trying to fill in the regions between the bricks, but apparently this stuff is heated? And Pushed into place? or ??? I...
  14. Brick Vinyl

    I'd like to see an example of vinyl applied to a brick wall. Are the spaces between the bricks just left as open cavities? Joe
  15. Brick Vinyl

    I'd like to see a clear example of this. The photo depicts my definition of a brick wall. Joe
  16. Brick Vinyl

    Are you talking about a BLOCK wall, or a BRICK wall? The two surfaces are worlds apart. Joe
  17. Franklin Kentucky

    I was lucky to have HIM as a friend. Joe
  18. Brick Vinyl

    You want to lay vinyl over a brick wall? :rolleyes: I don't see how you will pull that one off. I would use a strong projector and trace the pattern at night, projected as a black and white line art image, and then fill it in with a paint brush or an air brush during the day. Joe
  19. Franklin Kentucky

    Is it Boca Raton? I thought it was Coral Gables. That doctor that gives experimental injections to aid in the recovery of strokes... I think we are talking about the same man. He doesn't claim to cure you. He claims that the serum helps to clear away some of the fogginess that makes the...
  20. Dimensional letters thickness vs height vs distance

    and one more. Joe https://static1.squarespace.com/static/53895d6ee4b062b1d67b9c0f/t/564a8d87e4b09e11859ebe88/1447726471161/a_techguide_signage_sample_37.pdf
