I'd be more concerned with a bunch of tweenage muppet fucks trying to
pull some kind of prank...possibly one that wasn't thought through too
well.

Interesting article. I loved the line, " 'If you love it, you don't know
much about typography,' Mr. Connare says. But, he adds, 'if you hate it,
you really don't know much about typography, either, and you should get
another hobby.'"
And of course since Vincent Connare's inspirations in designing the font
was, The Dark Knight Returns and Watchmen, we must give him credit for
his insightful and outstanding reading habits.
Thanks for posting.

Hi,
I've written some screenplays and want to try to find money to enter
production status.
I'll be needing graphic artist(s) to design poster teasers.
I unfortunately cannot offer you any salary for the moment. Only
things I can guarantee you (by contract) is to pay you retroactively
if I can secure a budget.
It's a take it or leave it deal, sorry, I really have no other
solution for the moment

Might check out www.no-spec.com for the reality of " I unfortunately cannot
offer you any salary for the moment. Only
things I can guarantee you (by contract) is to pay you retroactively
if I can secure a budget. "
Spec work has a documented ROI (return on investment) of ~1%. By comparison,
the slots in Vegas have a ROI of 3-5%
