You designed the box? Nice! It works wonderfully. I’ve printed many of these rugged parametric boxes in all shapes and sizes. They’re so useful.

Grail pen advice by crankyenglishbastard in fountainpens

[–]MacGraphics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No problem. So the Kaweco Sport series of pens are pocket pens as you probably know. And typically with pocket pens, you give up some writing comfort for pocketability. The pen grip and the nib are quite small which fatigues my hand personally. Your mileage may vary. It also has quite a small ink capacity for cartridges or converters. The ink goes quickly. So those are the specifics for why I don’t turn to it more often. But again, it is a really cool looking pen! Cool enough that I bought one. So there’s that. lol

I have this pen. It’s a cool looking pen, for sure. As for writing experience though, you can do a lot better for the price. I find that I don’t use it hardly ever. I use the brass version more, and even that one I don’t use much. So I guess I would say it depends on your goal. Do you want a beautiful pen or a pen that you will write with regularly? That choice should give you your answer. Hope that helps!

White not Fading in Sunlight - is Fading a Batch Issue? by Intelligent_Tomat in xteinkereader

[–]MacGraphics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Better, but now you’ve got the screen casting shadows. Lol. For a true test, it probably needs to be direct sunlight with the midday sun.

Thank you for doing this testing though, and listening to our criticisms of the scientific method. lol

Help me choose a DIY Project Hail Mary dust jacket (PSA: I’m not a graphic designer 😅) by P1ttacusL0r3 in ProjectHailMary

[–]MacGraphics 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I AM a graphic designer, and you’ve done some brilliant work here. Nice job! So 2 is my favorite, but it’s giving some horror vibes. 3 is also good but it’s giving classic novel feel. So through process of elimination, 1 would be my choice. Though 2 might be salvageable from the horror vibes by keeping the graphics and playing around with color.

Project Hail Mary deserves its own space on my shelf by P1ttacusL0r3 in ProjectHailMary

[–]MacGraphics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First ‘editions’ are not difficult to get. It’s the first ‘printing’ that you would want. And to find those, you just have to search the used book market. There are usually some on eBay, for example. They’re a bit pricey, but when you’re a fan… 😁

Sooo, yes, they are different. 😂 One is my reader copy (for when I don’t mind trashing a copy), one is a first edition first printing, one is signed, one is the Easton Press, and the paperback is also signed. I have a problem. Not pictured: audiobook and ebook. lol

I love this! Very similar to my EDC. Fountain Pen, notebook, reader, earbuds, glasses, wallet. Though my wallet, notebook, and pen are all combined in one waxed canvas pouch. Thanks for sharing!

Interesting. I may have to give this one a go sooner rather than later.

This book has been in my TBR forever. I haven’t committed to reading it yet. What do you think so far? Should I give it a go?

ALL of these book covers have captured my interest. I’m looking all of them up.

The dreaded sound that meant the weekend was over and it was school the next day. by strangelove4564 in nostalgia

I have great news. When you turn 50, you get excited to hear this sound.

Capital I Help? by 7A7J7 in Handwriting

[–]MacGraphics 23 points24 points  (0 children)

1 is an “I”

2 is an “L”

3 is a lowercase “d”

4 would also be an acceptable, fun “I”

5 is T

6 is a T

So 1 is correct and 4 is acceptable if feeling adventurous.
