I scanned a sheet of titles I had laying around at 999 dpi. It's neat to look at your handwriting so largely.

well, technically i dont handwrite but the way i print quickly seems to run together as if it was. Take for example the 'e' in almost every word. This is simply a page of notes from Social Studies:

It's fun to analyze.

[edit]The .jpg link wasn't working for me. So i took three seconds and explained the lines. I read the best book ever on lettering. it's by Helm Wotzkow. The Art of Hand Lettering (Dover; ISBN 0-486-21797-3). Anybody who will ever make their own font, or use a font in any picture they ever make should read this book. It explains everything you could want to know about how to hand letter, why you do what you do in lettering, everything. [/edit]

My signature is slightly better than yours.

Hehe, never looked at my handwriting like that either. It's neat to find patterns in it now too.

Other people: post your handwriting.

its weird, i spend all this time drawing, and my handwriting is still hideous. i would scan some for you, but i decided to quit taking notes altogether so my books are filled with doodles instead.

hey wow! I was thinking of starting a thread just like this a little while ago..

Here's a few samples.

The two left ones are (top) notes for a tech presenation for my school (bottom) chemistry notes from a few days ago. Right ones are (top) a character outline thingy for a book of our choice for english (bottom) quotes from another book in the same class.

Gotta love high school

i know what you mean, ive bean drawing for 20+ years, and my handwritting literally looks like a handicaped 5y/o wrote it. i get flack all the time for it, from bosses, peers, and of course, my mother. i think it must be a handeled in a different part of the brain or something.
i dont even have a remotely consistent signature, but thats mine and my banks problem.

Hm.. i thought most people assumed/knew that handwriting got sloppier as you drew more. At least that's what I've experienced and heard about. I never drew back in middle school when i didn't draw at all.. I had his huge, bubbly writing even though I didn't try. Now it's pretty darn scribbly.
