Good Cold and Hot Drinks is my second contribution to the world of typography. Although you may think it is actually worse than "The World's Worst Font" I believe it is better because it as a story.
Long story short, I was taking a short break while trekking through the Himalayas last year (sounds more impressive than it is) and spotted a small store that was selling... Good cold and hot drinks. I loved the signage out the front of the store because of the random character sizing, stroke and capitalisation.
Below is a photo of the store signage with my font used in the black text above. I had to create a few of the characters myself as below is all I had to work with.

Any typographer worth their salt will tell you there are a lot of factors to take into account when developing a great font. Kerning, leading, ascender, cap-height, counter, shoulder to name just a few. When I set out to design my first True Type Font I took none of these into account. With just the Pen Tool in hand I scribbled out each character as quickly as I possible could, and here we are 94 characters later I present you with... The World's Worst Font.
The World's Worst Font is now available for download from Sixes & Sevens favourite font site dafont.com. Please use it wisely but shamelessly.
