    Post Alphabet Design

    I think it would be neat to have a contest for designing the best typography for each letter of the alphabet. One per week. It would take half a year but by the end, it would be a beautiful alphabet of all sorts of design techniques from artist across the globe.

    We.. the community contest comitee.. try and discuse all contests before we post them up. Trying to weigh out the good and bad of each concept for the contest. At this point it's in the que for discussion.

    I think this is a great idea too.. Brandy it really goes hand in hand with the "Design A Day" article we talked about earlier in the week. I would definitely try to participate as much as possible in this contest and typography is an area I'd like to get more experience in... Great idea Chris
