So please keep your stupid comments to yourself.
@djnippa: And you. I'm sure you know that winty5 is just a 10-year-old boy so PLEASE treat him as a 10-year-old boy. I know he makes you mad and you feel 'disgusted' with his manner... but please let him grow.
And sorry my grammar sucks...
I know winty, he has no right to say that, but it doesn't mean you're right also. You reply him with an appropriate comments for a boy like you.
You've said you'll turning 11 tomorrow, welcome to a long journey to a mature world. Please understand if everyone has different manner that some of them will make you mad, angry, sad, or even cry...
But please respect everyone, I've been warned him to respect you. So now it's fair :)

"@FontBlast: Sorry for messing up all the comments on this font page, I still have very high respect for this font."
Good job Font Blast! 10/10
The first fontstruction in a similar style to Peach – Plump by nathancox – was released before the official announcement of fontstruct. It was, in fact, included in the announcement here (third-to-last sample) and here.
Peach, like Plump, uses 2x2 filters and is therefore counterless. DJ Nippa, Em42, and Afrojet’s fat-face experiments (the Mooch and Mango series) all use 1.8x : 1.8x filters with brick overlaps to generate their counters. This complex technique creates a distinct effect more akin to folding sausage links than the inflated-balloon contortions of a true 2x2 fat-face. Therefore, Peach is a departure from the cited sources (Mooch and Mango) and a revisitation of an earlier, perhaps unknown form.
The fractional scaling + brick overlaps that give Mooch and Mango their characteristic slits, dots, and notches for counters were all techniques I developed and first published under my now defunct williaum account. This was the Re:leaf series, the last highly innovative (and, as always, cloneable) contributions I made under williaum before deleting the account.
Like brickstacking, the scaling + overlap trick that allows for maximum curves caught on and became the fundamental approach for many later works. Notable examples include those cited above in addition to a collection of other fonstructions by afrojet, thalamic, Em42 (the delisted Mango, one of his first published fontstructions), and DJ Nippa amongst others. geneus1 also made a play on “fractional scaling” with overlaps when he took his own innovative tangent in the aftermath of Re:leaf Gothic.
It’s just part of the fontstruct toolbox these days, one of myriad techniques fontstructors call upon to create their diverse modular arrays. Surely some folks arrived at the idea independently of Re:leaf Gothic or the works that it would go on to inspire even after disappearing. A year later, Meek revealed one of the original FontStruct logo concepts utilized this technique!
And thus concludes this lesson in FontStruct history. I will close with an image exhumed from the fontstruct samples archive. Though the original williaum account is long gone leaving nary a direct link outside the memories of the earliest fontstructors, we can go back through a chronological listing of all images posted by users on this site to discover this 185th sample circa mid-August, 2008:
