I will if you write what I have to do.
Just filling in the e-mail addresses and send the standard mail?
Do you have list?

Or have I to search for the addresses?
Then I would quail.

My resolution is 1280x1024
I can read all except the last 6.
But I have to concentrate on reading.
The simpler the script the easier I can read it.
Thus, I prefer Arial.
(I'm not saying that I would use Arial for MEFA
only that I would use a very clear script type)

A very special extraordinary button with a script type
which really needs some time to analyse ;-)
It is too original for me.

What I like is the allusion to Middle Earth writing.
It is also one of the few which uses a colour
which really agrees with me.
My favourite is Indian yellow.

But I think due to the unusual as well as tilted script
and the need to analyze first the picture
it works not so good as a banner.

Maybe I will some day, because I quibbled so much.
Then I will experience the difficulties of
realizing what I thought about.
... but not in near future.

I would like to look again at the award banners
as there were some which looked really good
to this quibbler here.

I agree, as many opinions as there are minds.

Seems to be working again on movies.
I will wait till it comes up again :-)
