Smiling Type{faces}
December 3, 2008
We all are pretty conversant with the typical smile emoticons we use on web, but from years and years we are watching them only in the restricted web fonts like Verdana, Georgia and so on.
So i just did a small experiment to find out how other type “faces” smile, and some of them are really interesting !!
Have a look…
And ya…notice Arial, is he trying to pretend like Mr. Helvetica…
So, which one has the perfect smile ?

“Basehead” looks like a wide-eyed guy and look at Snap ITC, he looks like a vampire 🙂
Thanks both of you for comments.

Ya Harshit, now when you have said that…even i find a joker smile in abberation.
Thats may be because the rough strokes resembles Jokers scars !

Brilliant. Exactly the kind of work I like to see.
Get in touch with the FDM guys, I’d love to see this on a T Shirt during the fest.

I am Glad that you all liked it !
@Sid, Not sure about the T shirt but i am definitely going to work on a A3 printable poster for this.

I dunno man, a poster would be welcome – but as a T-shirt, I think that you and your blog can get a lot more mileage. I’m sure a lot of people would buy a T shirt with this ‘design’.

Thats very true Sid, i will think how to put it up on a Tshirt.
Thanks for motivating 🙂

That is so cool! I love garamond n jokerman n abberation…this is super-interesting.
Btw, you can try sites like pringoo, myntra etc to put this on a tshirt n also make money out of it…try cafepress if you wanna reach a global audience…
and i think it would be a great idea to put this on a tshirt.

Do compose this on something for all of us to buy,
and soon!

A t-shirt would be cool.
with all the smileys and a heading saying,
Different ‘Types’ of Smiles.

I have to say, I could not agree with you in 100%, but that’s just my IMHO, which could be very wrong.
p.s. You have an awesome template for your blog. Where have you got it from?
