Traditional half-tone printing screen effect. Spaces between letters have small dots, so does the space (bar).

Thought I might just also join the party of 2.0 curves. This is based on an attempt to come as close as possible to a perfect circle, trying to beat Gene in the competition for the most accurate circle before he pumps out another of his miracles...;) The "o" of this font is in that respect my entry to the competition. Just made it into a whole lowercase set for fun...
I suggest everyone who has his own circle for the competition somewhere in a font, tags it with "circle competition". Absolute accuracy shouldn't be the only criteria; if you manage to get an accurate circle on a small grid size, it should be rewarded as well. Mine has a 20 pixel stroke width and a 116 diameter, so I'm sure smaller solutions are also possible.
Due to its pretty large grid size this is getting dangerously close to the limits of the preview widget, so be patient when previewing it.

Xerro. Because it started with the o, and it looks like zero, even though there's no numerals. Another faux bezier helveticaesque looking sans serif experiment. Lowercase for now.

A quick test of the new fractional composites. And to see if there are any abnormalities that come up.

Alternate Ligatures: (worth copying)
¬ = ct
` = st
~ = f (s)
^ = ft (st)
# = fh (sh)
AE, ae, fi, fl, f (s) and the long s are in their places within the More and Extended Latin sets (thanks to riccard0 for his advice on the last two).This is a clone

Mostly inspired by the video game QBert, which was, I'm sure, partly inspired by M. C. Escher.
IsoMatrix was a font long before Fontstruct, and was much harder to realize with bricks than vectors.
This one is shared thanks to the intricate 3D output of the following fontstructors:
shasta's Escheresk,
frodo's Hommage a Escher,
and
funk king's Soma.
It is also released for Em42, because it was created purely with the original set of bricks that Fontstruct started out with.This is a clone

Legere. Latin root of the word 'legible.' An attempt at an original legible serif typeface. No single reference used, but I did keep the Serif section of the FontBook always open. After finishing the letters, it guess it resembles Melior or Renault.
Somewhat inspired after caliopigio released Formal Roman. Maximization of composite angles were used to hammer out smooth curves in a smaller grid space. Cap height=42. I know I can make it smoother by working at twice the size, but at this point, fuggeddaboutit.

052610. Another quick experiment with thin bricks. 1920's Broadway feel.
121114. Revisited the curves and smoothed out everything using subtle nudges.

A scaled back version of the original Fractal Font (fragment). Because of the self-similarity of the pattern, the two are virtually identical. For template I used Magor, with some modifications. Lower case only.

Renovare S2. Solution 2 or Serif 2. Clone of Renovare S1.
In contrast to Renovare S1, a thickening of the serif makes way for efficient curved brick usage leading to a smoother and more natural slabtastic appearance.
Revamped from a corrupted version of Renovare S1 and may suffer from the same instability. Handle with care. Downloaded normally for me. Please let me know if there are any problems. Thx.

trying to break the grid once more... composite is a great feature... still running into a lot of problems though. in had a great start with this one. i think the squeezed curves create great shapes but i don't know if it's worth creating upper case letters for. this is more like an extended experiment.
unfortunately spacing is aweful once again...

This is a quick tutorial to demonstrate how to create the new angles allowed by FS 2.0.
A = 1:3
B = 1:4
C = 1:6
D = 1:8
E = 2:3
To create the angles, you have to use the new composite feature. Each letter shows the bricks at the top needed to create the angle piece beneath it. Except for the 2:3, the two middle columns make the angle pieces necessary for the middle part of the 2:3.
I will post some screenshots and better explanations tomorrow.
I added single dots to the other caps to make sure this font showed up for everyone...I couldn't remember what the minimum number of characters is.

This is my first font struction. The font looks like 3D (only the shadow is defined). I used to write this way in free hand. And now I have created my font.

This one looks better in smaller sizes. Best at pixel size.
-----------------------------------
I started with the small letters. Then I tried to create matching capital letters. I'm not sure about other glyphs.

Any suggestions/comments on this are welcome:)

The alphabet, shown in a 16-segment display.
Useful to simulate a calculator, if you don't mind it not being slanted like the most common displays available in the market.
The alphabetic characters are all caps.
The "@" character has the whole 16 segments inside.

This Domino font is mapped for standard British and US keyboards, please clone and re-map if your keyboard is different.
How to use:
For vertical dominoes, choose upper number first (1-6 or 0 for blank), then shift+ for the lower number.
For horizontal dominoes, use top-row keys (qwerty +p for blank) for left half, then shift+ the same keys for the right half.
