Yava Font Gets 5000+ Downloads

My Yava Font got 5,399 downloads!
I've completely forgotten about the fact I've put it on DaFont website, and when I accidentally came across my font, it already reached that many amounts of downloads. 5000+ downloads in 3 months seem quite impressive to me.

I didn't blogged about it nor advertised it, because I actually started working on a modified version, which I was planning of making available but still haven't got around finishing. The Beta version that is available on DaFont website has very thin strokes and needs to be used in quite a large point size. Since my Beta version seem to be quite successful, I may try charging a fee once the version with slightly thicker strokes is finished. Will see.

Meanwhile, Yava font Beta (PC and Mac) is available for free at DaFont website.


私の作ったフォントYavaが、気づいた頃には5000ダウンロードを超えていて、びっくり。特にあまり考えずに、タダでダウンロード出来るように公表したのだけれど、結果としてダウンロードしてくれる人が5000人いたということは嬉しい。
タダで自身の音楽を公開しているミュージシャンとかもこういう気持ちなのかな、と想像。

いずれ、もうちょっと太めで使いやすいバージョンをリリース出来たらいいな。とりあえずそれまでは DaFontのウェブサイトで無料バージョンがダウンロード出来ます。(PC、Mac共に対応。)
