Nothing?

That's strange, it seems to be working for me

It on a friends server so I'll look into it.

No, I see it - I meant no reaction from Typophiles?

Ah, I see

Quite a fine job. S/s/$ seem to all be leaning a bit to the right. The stem of the 7 may be too thin at the top. That's about all I could spot. Getting into the realm of personal taste, I might question the shear on the upper left corner of the u.

Thanks for the response, I'll try some alterations and re-post.

aaron,

Thanks for the comment, I was going to post an updated version today, I'll look at the 'y' with your comment in mind.

Where is the sample to crit? I don't see a file.

That's because the link highlight color on Typophile
is another symptom of graphic-designer-too-subtlitis.

Click on "Alber" in the first post.

I've added an updated version to the first post

Another update to Alber with altered accents and added Eth, Thorn etc.

I would really appreciate any feedback, crit, approval or disapproval
Have I got this completely wrong or is it not original enough.

I'm having a hard time with the bold. It looks a little too 'auto bold'. I'd like to see the joins have a little more contrast. That being said, this is more of an aesthetic opinion than a technical problem with the font. Over all It's a pretty polished piece of work, though.

Christian,

thanks for your comments, I've added the italics to the first post - love to hear what people think. The italics still need work with the spacing etc.
