not to be a big stinker but how about not having the vertical type set all
wonky on the right side?

you can blame my anal-ness on the germans, dutch and swiss....  those folks
know how to set type.

i know a fantastic typographic designer here in berlin that i'm sure would
be happy to give some free type consulting for this.  feel free to contact
me if you want more info.

no offense intended to anybody, i just love to see good UI and brand design
married to fine craftsmanship.

[btw if anyone is interested there is a book by mr Josef Müller-Brockmann
called Grid Systems, that will change they way you look at type and its
uses--a bible of clean design]

best.

HA HA.. ROTFLMAO...  This is suppose to be funny, appear to be subtle, but
not really at all right?

OK.  OK.  Customer pressure wins over.  White letters AND straight type.
You guys are a tough group.  :)
