Since Smashing Magazine featured my font Quadranta in their post 30 New Free High Quality Fonts last week, my blog has been swarmed by visitors.
As a subscriber and a big fan of their blog myself, I really appreciate the author Vitaly Friedman and Smashing Magazine.
On the same day, I released a new version of the font My Fair Cody with several major changes.
Although I do not need to notify everyone of each individual change of my designs, I do feel compelled to encourage people to update the old versions (v1.000-1.002). I also hope it helps me to keep a record of the design developments.
Below are brief details about the changes.

Artist seals(stamps) in East Asian countries are similar to signatures in Western cultures.
Especially in calligraphy artwork, the seals are not only used to show the authors’ names, but also the artist’s own approval of the artwork completed.
Today I tried to create an East Asian style seal with Illustrator.

It’s been a while since I started designing this font, along with several other experimental fonts. My Fair Cody is a tribute to my dog, who died last March. She was a Border Collie, who shared ten years of memories, joy, and tears with me, every single day.
