Bahaha. If you've made a typeface that's become omnipresent enough that people start to hate it, you've done something really right. This looks great...
@Jeremy I know... the printed poster in my local (on-the-way-to-work stop) Caribou is kerned well but whoever did the web images didn't even take the time to match up the connections...
Like every character in this shot sans the 'a', feels like it was manually selected from a different typeface and has more contrast on the bowl than the p/d and just feels like it has too much personality in comparison with it's brethren characters.

Love the "W" and "a" there... as well as the strong dot of the "i".

Oh I'm so looking forward to this! And I don't think I'll ever dislike Wisdom Script - it's helped me out so many times.

Yeah it's not that nobody likes Wisdom Script @James... it's that EVERYBODY loves it! I don't know if you've seen but Caribou Coffee (my favorite chain coffee shop) is using Wisdom Script for their summer drink collateral.
Looking forward to seeing the new sans in action! Love that "W".

@Joseph Alessio I can't help but cringe when I see how Caribou used Wisdom and kerned it so loosely. Ick.
@James T. Edmondson Regardless of it's overuse and popularity, Wisdom Script is still a fantastic set of letters. Looking forward to this new one!

NICE!
Saw Wisdom Script in use by the Yankees the other day... maybe that's why no one likes it anymore? ;)
