Tattoo Commission Request
Hi,
I’ve been looking to get a tattoo for years and have always been set that it should be in Gallifreyan. I would love for it to include the name of my wife and my children. Is this something anyone could help with?

First spellcheck
Hello there ! I've been obsessed with gallifreyan for three weeks now since I discovered it and I'm very impressed with you guys and how you make it all look so beautiful. This is my first sentence. I would like to know if it is readable and would take any ideas to make it more aesthetic. Allons y !

Working on my own style for linear Gallifreyan
The writing style is a mix of Sherman, modern linear, and my own ideas thrown in. I wanted a way to write in my journal without the massive amount of space (and time) circular Sherman takes to write.
I’m working on a document that will show how to write in this system, it also includes a number (peek bottom right for today’s date) and maths system inspired by Sirkle’s and Sherman’s numbers systems.

Quite a big spellcheck
My first time posting on here and a pretty large spell check but I'd really appreciate any feedback!

Tattoo help
I can’t believe I never thought to come to Reddit for help before🤦🏼♀️ I’ve always wanted to get my children’s names tattooed in Gallifreyan on my arm, but every time I’ve tried to find a good translation, I always get different answers. Is anybody able to help me figure out a way to do this and make it look good?

What looks like Gallifreyan in "ONE MONTH until new #DoctorWho lands" post from disneydoctorwho instagram account on April 10.

I am not experienced with this other than having a handout. The only possible word I can tease out is possibly "Both" if you look at the white/gray parts and ignore some parts.

What did teenage me try to write here? (Possibly with mistakes)
I had a circular gallifreyan phase when I was 16-17 but those days are long gone and now I can't read it anymore! It's possible whatever is written here contains mistakes (and I see something isn't fully correct with the lettering either), but I need your help to guess what I was trying to write, if it makes any sense at all! TIA!
