@typegirl @Typophile @waybackmachine Wasn't somebody working to make the forum database readable? The original interface was Flash based, so that wouldn't work now.

Today I was looking for something specific from 2005 on @Typophile. I tried to use @waybackmachine but my old login didn’t work. Not that it should have.
Now I am feeling really sad and mourning the loss of that community once again. #MissTiffany

When was the last time you saw pixelated blackletter?
Jared Benson@benson
I had the honor of collaborating with electric banjo-shredding @tecateacher on this logo and album cover for Duncan & the Dragonslayer's first EP, "Slay." Did I just corner the market on pixelated blackletter with medieval tile patterns? #pixelart #typography #albumcover

@davelab6 @jbrewer @BaldCondensed @realdougwilson @Typophile I'm hoping that reading the archives will cause enough people to convince you guys to bring it back for real. That said, it could not become the exclusionary "safe space" that the fragiles are pining for...

@ninastoessinger @Paul_Hanslow Sounds like @Typophile :-)
BTW this also applies to OS versus lining numerals.

@Typophile is your site down? I had bookmarked a couple of pages that had information/guides for fonts I've been working on, but trying them leads to a password prompt. ?

@hhpapazian @benson @simoncozens @davelab6 @adamtwar @typegirl sure - @typegirl let me know if you’re interested in sharing?
English
@Typophile @benson @simoncozens @davelab6 @adamtwar The best news in type in ages! Thank you.
I'd be excited to see it fully revived... minus the type-IDs (a gateway to soul-crushing piracy).
BTW a while back @typegirl was compiling a list of notable threads, and I think she made some good headway. Maybe highlight one each week?

Congratulations to Ben and Jesse at @xyz_type for adding their names next to rock-design legends Rick Griffin and Jim Parkinson!
Read about their approach to modernizing this classic logo while preserving its heritage.

@sparkleglitch13 we miss you too! not dead, but re-emerging soon after a hiatus.

Hey @Typophile are you permanently dead? I found some old threads on wayback machine that had answers to some questions I have now and got nostalgic. I miss you.

We mourn today the passing of Gerrit Noordzij. His teachings shaped and inspired a generation.
Nick Sherman@NickSherman
I’m sad to hear of Gerrit Noordzij’s passing. It’d be hard to overstate his influence on how people teach, design, and produce type today. This is a certificate I wrote, designed, letterpress-printed, and presented with his @TypeDirectors Medal in 2013. flickr.com/photos/nickshe…

Raise your hand if you’ve disrupted a good relationship with quality fonts
Miriam Isaac@misaac85
Husband: Miriam, I think you got scammed! It says here you paid $300 for a font?? Me: Erm...
