By VisualCast Designology · 10/27/2013

The reception and feed back on Deicon – our first symbolic typeface product – is more than what we expected. We got nothing but lot’s of gratitude and love for those who made this happen. Within a few days of it’s launch announcement, we got hundreds of hits and download on our websites. Our web traffic was on it’s busiest days. After a few weeks we finally started to printed and shipped The Type Manual Book. Thank you for those who supported by purchasing the book. Just when we tough life can’t be better than that, the good fellows from DIY 2013 (Design It Yourself) – An annual Design Conference held in Surabaya – dropped us a mailed. They informed us that they’ll be using our Deicon for DIY 2013 official icon / typeface for the whole promotional materials. Thank you guys. They also invited us for a short presentation aboutVC_DEICON.ttf on their event – sadly we can not make it. Sorry Guys.
