    If you ever have been interested in typography, feel free to read about the basics! Just a random tutorial I did for graphic design beginners ^^

    This is awesome! I've been planning on looking into typography and then you come up with this! Perfect timing, Ashe.

    I really do hope you do another one like this. Super helpful for someone who knows not a whole bunch about this particular subject.

    Typography is something really overlooked.

    I knew a lot of this stuff already, but the way you put it together in this infograph is really well done. It does teach you a lot of things about typography without being extensive at all! You did a good job :3

    Glad it's helpful guys! And yah Papupo, I didn't mention it, but like you said, it's a good guide for web design as well. Anything design related ^^

    Very nice guide!
    If you end up doing a part 2, you can cover some of the more advanced things, like:
    - Anti-aliasing (None, Sharp, Crisp, Strong, Smooth)
    - Blending styles
    - Text positioning (for signatures and stuff)
    - Satix's nice abs
    - Spicing up text
    - Complementing colors (though you could do an entirely separate guide for this one)
    - Making sure text compliments the piece

    @[member="Ashe"] do you still have the image for this? This is a super old guide but it appears to be broken, so let me know if you can find the image! If it's gone, that's fine too, just let me know and I'll move it to the archive.
