Sorry for the late reply, been away/busy/etc. For the record, I'm not «offended» as such when people post suggestions, but frankly I think more often than not it's beside the point. The question is how...

I get arrow, but not cursor at all. The telling details that would say "cursor" to me would be an angled placement, so that one side of the arrow is vertical and the other a 45° diagonal. Of course, it...

[The "A" without crossbar] it's been done a number of timesYes, but the samples you cite are always in context with other letters.

I will probably be able to post soon with the (A-initialled) wordmark added, which will (I think) make the "A"-context clearer.Craig, that's an interesting thought – thanks. It does sound tricky.

KIA and NASA use the 'A' in context with a word. That makes it readable and obvious that it is the letter 'A'.Using a standalone "A" without a crossbar and without a phonetic context makes it more...

I get arrow, but not cursor at all. Me too! I also think it’s worth to try a cursor version, but maybe just with a small angle at the bottom and a small non-horizontal angle on the left bottom of the...

Final result FYI: Thanks for the «angle» thought. By ever-so-slightly tilting the cursor (and making it much smaller – and that curve-vs-corner thing*), it becomes more recognizable as a cursor...

View ArticleWell for me, business cards
Well for me, business cards have often been rather disappointing, even when examining samples beforehand. These look very good indeed — no doubt also due to your expert typography.
