The Type Bashing Will Continue Until Morale Improves

[chronographia]

It started out as a warm-up exercise mostly, to get ready to mock-up some business cards, to remind myself how to manipulate type in Illustrator, to get all of that over-the-top Victorian design urge out of my system so that I can focus on what the client wants

Oh wow, now that is something to behold. I am quite enarmoured with the faux machine engraving, but more importantly - sky watch ticky lists! From the avid sky watcher that I am (and member of the Cloud Appreciation Society, who I assure you do not have cards with ticky boxes in their handbook) it is a sort of strange dream come true. If I were not meant to be doing anything other than surfing the net, I would even go and hunt down some other phenomena for you.

Thank you! It kind of got away from weather after a bit and diverged into astromomy and optics. Sky watching covers that neatly.

I should definitely put down Manhattanhenge. There are more, I know, that aren't coming immediately to mind. (Box Tunnel is also interesting, but I think you have to be a fan of Brunel to appreciate it. Then again, WHO WOULDN'T BE, I ask you.) "Henges, Other" may be the way to go?

Note: Do not tempt me to put machine engraving on your business cards. I might go a little crazy with it.

I want one. I want several dozen. How do I purchase these beauties? I have friends who need them. Many friends who need them. Think of the children.

I have a few things to add to the list (and if you've got any suggestions, please let me know!) and then I'll put it up as a .pdf download. You could print out as many as you liked. I might put a paypal donation button next to it, if you really feel the need for commerce?
