How that's what I'm talkin' about. You'll have a pm in a minute Bunny. Great Font. That's why I asked


@Sauron I completely understand your point. It does take hard work and it is of great value. It's just that I'm not a professional designer so I would never pay for any font, be it the best font possibly imaginable. I was just asking Tim as a favor for us who are in this just for the pleasure of making cool covers, and not professionally. But I do agree with you. I wish success for all, and that includes Tim, who i always said was one of my favorite designers.

I don't know how many oldsters are still around from this thread's beginning, but I have another update arising from that Bogart project with my pals here so many years ago. :)

Back in the day, I designed this title treatment for Dark Passage with a sans-serif top half and a serif bottom half to convey the movie's shift in point-of-view halfway through:

After years of thinking about it, I finally jumped in and spent the past few months turning the concept into a font called Pluot:

(The font is more subtle than my original title treatment, primarily to fix some balance issues and make it more usable.)

myfonts.com/fonts/bunny-dojo/pluot

In coming up with the sample images, it felt pretty versatile, so here's hoping the font will find some interesting uses out in the world. :)


Thank you again to my friends here for the encouragement on those designs years ago, it resulted in some posters/covers I love and a couple of pretty cool additional projects. :)


For added visual appeal and to make this feel less like a sales pitch, here are more Bogart designs: :cheers:

Nice job Tim! I prefer it as an uppercase font but the lowercase looks cool as well.

Fantastic work buddy! I especially like the Rummy font, can't believe I haven't seen it earlier.
