        Hey iawgoM - I quite like that - what about with the 2 dots instead of the cross F.

        I chose the dots because they are visible when small. They are full stops at half the font size.

        re: the old thread - might be under Feathercoin Fonts.

        Sorry I didn’t look up the thread - I’m really snowed under, and I was hoping some more arty people might get interested to have a go.

          i don’t like that, it looks like a warning sign, kinda reminiscent of no smoking signs. haha

              For example, the bitcoin font used in the enhanced p2pool front end is done by :

              Then the font is :

              // it’s Bitcoin, use the fontawesome BTC icon

              and to produce the font

              __

              Fonts looks like a whole big area on it’s own…

                First is too much VRC second too much FRK.

                There was already voting about this long time ago. Anybody want to dig the thread from depths of FTC middle age?

                :)

                The idea is to actually make a font F, I would like one for the p2pool FTC enhancement front end. VRC doesn’t have a font, V is their icon?, Franko’s isn’t the same as 2 bars, and they don’t have a font either.

                The main problem is to keep it clear, even at small size, - maybe just the one dot above the F or 3 dots, to look more like a Feather. i.e Brainstorm some ideas and actually produce some test fonts.We don’t have to vote on it, the popular ones would get used.

                I started to look at FontForge - but I’d much rather a more artistic / calligraphic person have a go.

                The other advantage of the umlaut F idea, is that it can be made of a normal F + 2 half size full stops. So the FTC letter can be made of any other Font.

                  I did these example Feathercoin font ideas a few weeks ago, but had trouble uploading them. Think I’ve figured it out now.

                    I like the f with a dot as the cross (2nd one)

                      I think the “F” is a really difficult character to turn into a symbol…

                      What about those in this page?

                      Of course I’m not suggesting to steal the font from there… but there are some nice styles I think. And I think they may serve as a good inspiration.

                        the best symbol is this one IMO

                            I quite like this, S is double F. The main thing is, can it be made into a Font and does it works at small sizes?.
