ani_meher 42 Report post Posted April 10, 2009 Nothing looks compelling. The symbol shouldn't be just pretty, but easy to write and distinguish too. The s with horizontal line is straight rip off of $.the following http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/photo/4365924.cms is actually a mathematical symbol for set of Real numbers! Come on, is there anyone creative on board who can create a better symbol? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ACS 130 Report post Posted April 11, 2009 Some of the Symbols are only a visual treat but not practically simple to pen down. I chose the simple hindi alphabet.. Simple to make & in our national language. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
