I am finished! Please comment on this font, I am a very good font maker (which is why my name is what it is), but I don't get many votes and nearly no comments at all. I have also never had a top pick before (Meek, hint hint!) XD oh well, vote and/or comment!

It certainly does look pixelly, so you got that down. a couple small notes is that the capital J connects with other letters, so IJ looks like U. Also Capital B is wide on one side which is inconsistent with the other letters. Other then that it is not actually a bad font.

Hey ExtremeFontMaker, I'm always happy to see young people making fonts on Fontstruct.

This is a good start, but keep working at it. Study other fonts you like and the ones that get Top Picks to see what is special about them.

Here are a few things you could improve on this font:
- Have a consistent height for the lowercase and uppercase letters. The J is a bit taller than the rest. The f, g, j, p, and q all have different length descenders.

- The left side of the B is noticeably thicker than the vertical parts of other letters.

- Some letters like v, w, and z look heavier or more bold than the others. Try to make them more consistent with the rest.

- The l and t are a bit shorter than the b, d, and k.

- The h looks really small. Try using the n and making the left side taller.

These are just a few ideas to get you started. Keep working at it and your Top Pick will come some day.

Hi, I won't add to the good advice from SkySonic and aphoria, but would like to point you towards some free Image Editing programs that all offer quite a bit more than Paint:

http://graphicssoft.about.com/od/pixelbasedwin/tp/freephotoedw.htm

This site gives quite a few free options (and good advice such as the warning about Gimp being quite difficult to learn).

Good luck :)

Umm... I am only 12, so I am not allowed to go on sites without mum or dads permission. I'll look at it, for sure!

I wonder if I am the youngest fontstructer today... I hope no one is like 7...

My 6 and 8 year old girls have played around on fontstruct since they were 4 and 6, but they haven't released any public fonts...yet!

Just wondering... is your FS avatar made with my font Pixels Redefined? It looks a lot like it. You can check it out in Gallery and I also used it for my avatar!

I made a new font, called 'Minecraft Font'. It may not be open to the public yet...

Agent Demonic Ladybug:

Yes I did! one of the hearts when you look at it was from me too. I used Pixels Redefined as your icon font! Advertisment, dude.
