I learned it at school but only one that is useful to know is the serif and kerning.

Yeah most of the time you don't really need to worry about this stuff unless you're designing typefaces or doing really specific changes for a logotype. But its still nice to know.

I like the first one better. I think you could also make a label for "leading" and tighten up your own just a bit.

Just one little thought from me,
I think the type is a little close to the edges of the poster.

But very cool poster and I learnt new things from it!

I think this is great! I really like the color combination and type face. I think it works pretty cohesively! Nice work!

Really useful poster.
Easy to follow, and very easy to remember the elements.

I wonder how it would look on a t-shirt...

The second one. But, what about replacing yellow with black and and text in white?

I like the way the yellow background catches the attention.
Maybe you can try distancing the main text from the parts of the letters. It may look more organized. :D

That's sweet. Needs the smiley face, and "Have a Nice Day" on there somewhere. -R!

nice work the anatomy is very clearly labeled, reminds me of an elementary school spelling vocab test.

Nice one! I like the idea, but maybe you need to change the visuals a bit, like a gradient background...
