Hi there!
I'm from France, i'm 28, i work in computer graphics and i came on this blog by chance.
i'm working all day long on a Mac at the office but when i go back home i become Mr Hide as soon as i turn on my PC (i know, it's a shame)

i'm interested in typography and I like making my own fonts (checkout my website). Many of them are still at the project state 'cause i can't find the time to work on it...
I'm also fond of icons and other pixels creation. For the moment i'm having great fun on iconbuffet.com that offer free icons every month.

Voilà! you know a little more about me...

Cool fonts! Welcome to TAB, good to have you!

Hey vinz! Glad to have you aboard the big 'ol TAB ship! We'll just have to have your home computer change into a Mac soon

Also, very cool website! I'm also into typography (although I have yet to make any of my own typefaces), but it's great to meet someone else interested in this field. Perhaps some designers in this community are also interested in it (and have yet to have said so).

Welcome vinz.

Very nice web site, you're obviously a good designer.

Nice typefaces Vinz. I too really like Typography a lot of my design is based around it at the moment. I've never found the urge to develop my own typeface though, it sounds too much like hard work, but you seem to enjoy it, let the creativity flow!

thanks for your kind replies!
You're right, developping an entire charater set is a long task, it's hard to find time to finalize something and i've got a lot to learn, but it's fun... The funniest is to see my typefaces in magazines, in the street, CDs ...
Concerning the apple thing, I don't think i'll switch for a mac at home for the moment, i've just bought a brand new PC last december (a very big one with lot of expensive stuffs inside) but i installed and ran OSX on it, does that count??
