He mentioned that some letters needed a little work, and I agreed, so I tweaked some of them around. The originals are in the boxes. But it occurred to me that it wasn't really a 3 by 3 font; it was more like a 2 1/2 by 3. That top line really can't go more than the lower part of it; I tried and the letters looked stupid and out of proportion. In any case, I like the font; tell me what you think. Oh, I also took out some of the dots, like the ones on top of the B, D, E, F, P, and R. And I also shoot for some blockier looking letters than Ben does.
