Glyphlings
Nine Greek letters, in capitals and lowercase, set in Courier New Regular, each given eyes in its empty spaces.
Size and distance apply to the eyes. The white dot applies to Dots and Wide. Download saves the character as you see it.
How a Glyphling is made
01
The letter is the body
Every character is a Greek letter, capital or lowercase, from Courier New Regular. The outline is never redrawn, stretched or smoothed.
02
Eyes live in the empty spaces
Eyes go in a letter's counters or open pockets: the bowl of the Omega, the triangle of the Delta, each half of the Phi. They should not touch the stroke.
03
Three eye sets
Dots: a round black eye with one white highlight. Wide: a white eye with a dark rim and a big pupil. Pills: a tall black bar with rounded ends, as in the Temple logo. All blink every few seconds, and you can change their size, distance and highlight.
04
Soft colour behind
Each character sits on its own pastel tile. The letter and the eyes stay black.
Colours
The characters are vector: the letter, the eyes and the blink. They are set from Courier New Regular, a typeface licensed from Monotype, so check its terms before using them commercially.
