Thanks! I just downloaded the font, and I'll try it out. As far as 
kerning, you might want to just make it a fixed width font instead of 
proportional. That would make it easier for people to use in making 
boards that line up properly on successive lines. Or since there are 
so few characters, perhaps the upper case versions could be fixed 
width and the lower case versions proportional for use in the text? 
Just some thoughts.
