Photobox, my online digital photo printers of choice, are having a competition to celebrate 10 years in business.  It was divided into categories by continent on a theme of Around the World in 80 Days.   I submitted a number of my American shots and promptly forgot all about it.  Until today.

Four rows down, in the centre.

Here, as a dev: [link]

No idea why they chose this one of all the American stuff I submitted, but I'm sort of glad they did.  I can't see it winning, somehow, as there's some stiff competition, but it's nice to be in all the same.

Thanks for faving the Kis snapshot; it increases the likelihood of my return to work on it, and at an earlier time. :)

No problem! Great work. What do you think is still "to do"?

Spacing and kerning is incomplete, small caps and so forth are incomplete, the bold is very incomplete, the bold italic is non-existent. I suppose the bolds are more important than the small caps and such, because the Kis is meant to serve well as a general-purpose screen and web font, such as for my blog.

Lately I have been more interested in the e-ink display of the Kindle 3, which seems to favor very different design choices; thus my failure so far to return to work on the Kis.

Interesting; I don't have a Kindle so can't comment, but I hadn't considered that it might influence the decisions of typographers.
