Hey, Jim. I moved your comment here to join its friends.--RosicrucianTalk 17:34, 5 May 2009 (EDT)

BW Models

Finished the scanning tonight. Expect an e-mail some time tomorrow. -Derik 04:17, 13 May 2009 (EDT)

Well, awesome! Thank you, I'm looking forward to seeing the models. --Jimsorenson 10:06, 13 May 2009 (EDT)

Cybertronix alphabets

Can I ask how you made the Image:Maximal Language.jpg and Image:Predacon Language.jpg pics? They might be better off without JPEG compression, if possible... --fleb 17:53, 8 June 2009 (EDT)

I think I just typed them out and took a screen capture. You're welcome to grab the fonts and take a better pic. --63.203.180.99 18:09, 8 June 2009 (EDT)

Letters Page

Hey Jim, you've researched the UK letters pages since I love my notes on them... do you remember whereabout they talk about the US timeline, Time Wars etc being a new universe? -Derik 17:16, 20 June 2009 (EDT)

Oh, geeze. Ummm ... very late in the game, from what I recall. Dreadwing probably, not quite Blaster yet. Beyond that, I don't think I can help you. --Jimsorenson 17:24, 20 June 2009 (EDT)
Hrm...
Also I might be wrong on this... but I think that the BK Transformers site is using your fonts. -Derik 11:45, 22 June 2009 (EDT)
They sure are! Awesomesauce! Thanks for the heads up. --63.203.180.99 11:58, 22 June 2009 (EDT)

Hey, just wondered if you'd be interested in helping on the article. I'm going to have a bunch of time over the holiday weekend, so I hope to get most of the character set transcribed and uploaded as a PDF file. I can also shoot you the Illustrator file when I'm done if you'd like. With a little luck, maybe we can make sense of this and turn it into a good resource for the wiki. --RosicrucianTalk 14:13, 30 June 2009 (EDT)

Happily. Cyberglyphics are beautiful, and I'd love to see them get some love. --Jimsorenson 14:16, 30 June 2009 (EDT)
PDF now uploaded here. Those are all the glyphs I've found so far. Lemme know if you need the original Illustrator file.--RosicrucianTalk 22:57, 4 July 2009 (EDT)
Some of the glyphs have also been associated with numbers, and a handful of them are used for an (incomplete) substitution-cipher in a coloring book. -Derik 22:59, 4 July 2009 (EDT)
If there are more I don't have in that file, I'd love to see examples so I can add them in.--RosicrucianTalk 23:02, 4 July 2009 (EDT)
I should dig out the coloring book too... -Derik 23:55, 4 July 2009 (EDT)
Aha! I knew there had to be more than just the ten of these things. I'll get those integrated tomorrow.--RosicrucianTalk 00:02, 5 July 2009 (EDT)
And added to the PDF. Oh, how I wish they didn't put that inane effect on them to make them look "ancient." It makes them harder to eyeball.--RosicrucianTalk 01:18, 5 July 2009 (EDT)
Yet more. ;-) -Derik 01:37, 5 July 2009 (EDT)
Hmm. Some of those are new, yet some of them are repeats. I have to wonder how many symbols we'll have when we've catalogued them all.--RosicrucianTalk 01:43, 5 July 2009 (EDT)

Actually, I just realized that an NDA I signed makes me working on these a dicey proposition at best. Better for me to err on the safe side and bow out. I'm still quite keen to see what you guys make of them, but I don't think I can be involved.--Jimsorenson 23:06, 4 July 2009 (EDT)

That's fair enough, Jim. Thanks for the consideration, at least!--RosicrucianTalk 23:07, 4 July 2009 (EDT)

More Fonts

Thought you might want to know-- Decepticon Regular shows up in the Revenge of the Fallen X-Box/PS3 game. -Derik 17:59, 14 July 2009 (EDT)

Awesome! I'm everywhere I want to be! --Jimsorenson 18:41, 14 July 2009 (EDT)

Quiz

Just goofing around - Transformers quiz. Probably easysauce for anyone here though.
