I'm always hesitant to do the little freehand insignia like that, but you make some excellent points - focusing on the 'feel' of the insignia at arms length makes a lot of sense.

Maybe something like "Bbritannien", it starts with an eszett, but that looks like a capital "B".Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16070238698927689134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2990982154267636114.post-12248197306156688752012-08-27T00:10:12.379+01:002012-08-27T00:10:12.379+01:00Wow, very effective stuff.
