Wrote'm this:
Could you please have a look here: http://www.abstractfonts.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=1755&sid=a61fd24963220cc527c26db834e7c258
and help us out solving the powell peralta logotype font dilemma? So we can prevent Mr Stone to get as bald as his name :)
Let's see what happens.

Tried to upload some new things I've found out there and look what I've got:
Warning: mkdir() [function.mkdir]: Permission denied in /gfs/home/af/www/submit/index.php on line 45

Of course, I'll have to set up a server when I decide to learn it! :)
I shouldn't be having any trouble with this, if I install on Windows. I was never able to find out where mySQL was installed on Linux, a few months back, so I had to set it up on Windows! :)
Let's see... I have Apache Webserver for Windows, mySQL 3.23 for Windows, and will have to download the PHP stuff from that site. What else will I need to set it up? This is enough, I guess. But will read the manuals later!

Recently I used to successfully see fonts on the home page when I click one of the font name links, but now the page is blank. When I click on a font link in the lower left corner of my browser says there are 'errors on page'.

Now Joe, don't be careful, so you may learn something today.
[quote="joe"] ... So If I lost a flasy font say abaddon I would more likely pay for it ... [/quote]
Let's have a look at the Abaddon: 0 (zero) kerning pairs: Abaddon™ contains 194 glyphs and no standard kern pairs. This font does not include embedded bitmaps. There is not a glyph mapped to Unicode® position 20AC, suggesting that this font doesn't contain a euro currency symbol. In a font viewer it does already look uneven - certainly at larger sizes. Is this me or is this true? Let's have a closer look; and what do we see?

It is a mess!! Is this only true for this one T? Let's validate the Abaddon. The result?
41 glyphs have been (partially) fixed. 8 glyphs still have problems.

In short: rubbish. Messy on screen and totally useless for print. Not worth a dime. And you are prepared to pay 10, 19 $
Think again Joe. Think again.

Andrew, you know I am a fan of your fonts, they do look really good & are very detailed. But you should optimize your fonts.
Some computers crash with just one intersecting contour in a font.
You can and should edit the points when making fonts.
your designs are good, you have a lot of style so I hope this doesn't sound like I am being rude, but it's not that difficult to trace a glyph into a font program that looks cool, but has 900+ points and intersecting contours...
Not only will validating your fonts make them smaller files, they will make your fonts look better too, by ensuring the points are in the exact positions they should be in.
Whenever possible remove redundant points, correct intersections. If you do this you will see that you could possibly remove entire contours from a glyph with incorrect direction, or that overlap, or that intersect. This will reduce the file size dramatically!
And though you may not have encountered this problem yet, believe me, these flaws in a font do crash computers and will, and a font that crashes a computer... well, it's not a good thing.
I didn't always fix these things either, but now I always make sure my fonts are free of errors.
I made it a point to thoroughly understand my software & all that it as well as the fonts I create with it, are capable of.
Anywho, your fonts are really good, but without optimizing them I am sure that some who wanted to use them were unable to.

You are not the only one who is confused. So am I. That is why I asked.
Trough a Google ad link on this forum I stumble on urbanfonts.com. Never heard of, so I go there to have a sniff and see they have a forum. First impression, must be brand new because there are hardly any threads. Then I see that all threads started after May 20, 2006 but some have already more that 35 posts. Not bad for a brand new forum. Curious as I am I also open my other eye and see that these 35 posts all have the same date and are posted within 8 hours. I get more curious and start digging.
What do I find? An excerpt of the former Abstractfonts forum. Messed up a bit and fancy user names but exactly the same posts. I find Liana (l-goldenquill). I find Tørnquist (nicknamed by me as the Viking and occasionally as Tweetybird). I find whole discussions between the three of us. Yet posts by the same person under different names.
So, I wonder; what is this?? So I ask: Alex, what is this urbanfonts forum thing?
The Alex in this question is Alex the webmaster of Abstractfonts.com. Is Alex who buried the old forum. Is Alex Chum.., Mississauga.
So, Alex, I ask again, why is there a forum on urbanfonts.com that is a messed-up copy of a part of this (Abstractfonts) forum?
Compare these:
http://www.abstractfonts.com/forum/thread/30995/7091#post7091
and
http://www.urbanfonts.com/forum/showthread.php?t=3 (ignore the first two posts in this thread). and jump to http://www.urbanfonts.com/forum/showthread.php?t=3&page=2
At the urbanfonts forum
'barrelt' aka 'byson' is hitesh.mehta.
'bullish' [how appropriate] aka 'chris' aka 'dodo' aka 'fox' is me, koeiekat.
'devon' aka 'falcon' aka 'ivan' is l_goldenquill [liana].
'gilman' is Tørnquist [the 'ø' never showed on Abstractfonts, remember the discussion about that?].
