In reply to What letters to start with?:
@Typogruffer
If you are trying to be a competent type designer, don't hang around here.
Read some books, draw some letters, and never, never, ever listen to what Hrant says.
And while you are at it take these books off your list:
Designing Type by Karen Cheng,
The Elements of Typographic Style by Robert Bringhurst
A set of more useless information regarding type design I have never laid my eyes upon.
Bringhurst is the ultimate typographic cootie. His talks are filled with complaints about the state of this or that, Arabic, Greek whatever, yet he could commission the work he needs, yet he chooses to complain rather than commission.
For lack of a better term a Cheapskate.
