Shameless plug: Here's a poster I made recently using Roboto Slab:

http://hypertexthero.com/logbook/2015/05/when-doubt-move/

Edit: Is it bad etiquette here at HN to do shameless plugs for the purpose of finding work?



I didn't downvote you, but this struck me as quite a bit more shameless than most of the shameless plugs here. :)

But the downvotes might have been worth it. I'm sure some people clicked through.


Thanks, I'll try and behave myself more :)


I think it'd go down better if there was more there. This is a more tech focused site than an arty site. If you'd drilled down the ins and outs of the tech behind the font (How to compile it from the source maybe?) it would probably have been better received

Also I read your poster as "When in doubt m,ove"


Thanks for the feedback. I'm working on an article on using the font and will try compiling it from source and include the information.

Regarding the poster, the placement of the comma is intentional to suggest both an 'l' and the 'm' jumping over it, although maybe you're right and it is too much.


Not necessarily, but see also the second last paragraph on https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html


Got it — thanks!
