Instead of storing my data in the cloud, I just store it in the bush. It's the same thing, only palette-swapped. More accessible, too.

🏋️ After all those years and all those exclusive fonts, @sportsfonts is finally growing up and has its own website! ➽ https://sportsfonts.com

Many thanks to all the great people I was allowed to collaborate, and many thanks especially to @andreasnymark for his patient and excellent work! 🥲

Sportsfonts

The original type foundry specialised in sports. Retail fonts & custom solutions.

Why is there no VF interpolation previewer for Glyphs?

I guess there is now. Needs vanilla+fonttools.

💡CSS Tip!

Do you know that text-indent can take an extra value "each-line"? It allows you to have an indentation after each line! Useful if you rely on "<br>" to add new lines.

⚠️ It has limited support. Only Firefox and Safari for now⚠️

Demo: https://codepen.io/t_afif/pen/MWNBrab via   @codepen

Online Version: https://css-tip.com/text-indent/

indent each line

I've drawn a font. Named it Parsimonia. https://parsimonia.rubenprol.gal
Parsimonia by Rubén Prol

David Bowie's Blackstar album cover, released 8 years ago today, features a supposed-to-be word for BOWIE in a star shaped kind of alphabet.
Designed some record covers of fictitional band Michelle & Sebastian. All set in big bold and tight Parsimonia, the font I'm about to release.
https://variablefonts.dev is back, and looking sharp.
