i chose the ligature between the w and i in drawing on my drawing tablet. I like this ligiture because it only happens with some fonts, when the i has a top serif. i found it on my drawing pad, today.

i chose the weis sign for poor kerning because the kerning is so bad. the e and i are so close together and the s is in la-la land out there. this is disgusting i hate it. and the stroke around it is bad too.
i chose the Letterman's Diner sign as the worst type in KU. I hate this sign because when you are driving you can't even read the beginning of Letterman's because its too small. i also hate that the kerning looks horrible, like between the E and T. the third thing i hate about this is that the bowls in the letters are so small you can hardly see them in the smaller letters especially the A. i final thing that makes this sign bad is the stupid dot in the I of diner. why arent there dots anywhere else? i also think that the tracking between the 2 words is kinda funky. this sign is on main st in Kutztown. i took it on thursday at 6... but its there all the time :)
