Handwriting Samples of the Teeming Millions

Here is a sample of my handwriting. It’s a quote from picasso that I’ve used on my webpage.

XJETGIRLX, I think I am in love…oh man, with handwriting THAT sexy…

XJETGIRLX: so is that your regular handwriting? And is it the “legible” version or the “I’m jotting myself a note” version? (I’m trying to keep some consistency.)

Okay, I sent one.

Does nobody else hyphenate? I hyphenate all the time. This writing sample didn’t have all that many long words, though, so it only came up once.

Yes, that’s my regular writing, and you could say it’s both. That’s pretty much the only way I write.

When I was younger my handwriting was absolutely horrible, and so I started writing in block print all the time, and now it’s the only way I write.

Ok a request folks… I’m getting a pileup of files called “handwriting.gif” and “sample.jpg”… please… be a peach… title the files “yourname.gif” or “yourname-handwriting.jpg” or something ok? Pleeez? Keeps me from getting all confused.

Heh. Sorry. :o

Ok all submissions that have been received have been posted :slight_smile:

keep 'em coming! this is actually pretty interesting.

My sample was written on a handheld computer. It tried to clean it up a bit. I would have used paper, but I don’t have a (working) scanner.

I don’t have access to a scanner up here at the lake, so I took a digital photo of mine. Heh. Hey–it worked!

hmmm, mine’s not up – I guess I need to resend?

Achernar and XJETGIRLX—Wow. Simply, wow.

Sorry, Opal, about titling my submission “scan.jpg”… :o

I just sent mine… right handed, mechanical pencil.

Oh, anf FTR, I’m right-handed, and I wrote with a Pilot Razor Point pen. I prefer the Pilot G2 Gel Ink pens, but I lost it, and they’re too expesive to replace when I have some other pens I can use. (Although I CANNOT use cheap, Bic style pens, as I chew on them. I need ones made from a hard plastic, and maybe an ink well, to deter my chewing.)

Wow… I have a friend who I need to get a sample from. It’s so unreadable, it’s hilarious.

Ok if you sent me one and it isn’t up, let me know. I’m not the most organized person when I’m on my craptop.

…but I think I have all the new ones up.

Heh…I’m finding I prefer the ‘sloppy’ versions of handwriting in some cases… :stuck_out_tongue:

I sent mine around 3PM CST from bx2a5z@yahoo.com. I think the title of the file was neutron star - handwriting.jpg. Subject header was “neutron star’s ugly handwriting.” Did you get it?

Aha! yes I did. I knew I had missed something… it’s uploading now (damned slow vacation dialup…grr…)

Or maybe people guessing in the comments section could be entertaining…
