Well i wanted the ends of the swords to look _rounded_ as if the
swords had a convex edge to them.I didnt want them to look like they
had flat angles on the ends like these look:

The "J" is the only one that bugs me in this one,but still the
sword does get a rounded end to it the way i have done it,I think
that the confusion is that y'all think i wanted the ends to be slanted
like the /\ combo would have done.

Then my wonderfull godess,VK responded thusly:

Thanks VK,They look just as cool in your font as
they look in Topaz new2.I am glad you can see why
i used them jlf's on the ends. :) :D :) :D :P
I think they look a little more like daggars
in yer font though,but that is ok.




I wanted the ends on them swords to look like this
  
     ,                                ,
   ,' `.                             / \
  /     \                           /   \
 J       L  rather than like this  /     \
 F       J                        /       \

I hope that every one can see this now.... :P

besides i did say they was stupid to start with
didnt i...............


Be cool everyone,
 Krogg.
