Dear Velvetyne friends, we've recently left Telegram in favor of other platforms. So, that means that from now on this communication channel will become inactive. If you want to continue receiving information about our new releases, please consider following us on Mastodon ( https://mamot.fr/@velvetyne ) or either subscribing to our email newsletter (https://velvetyne.getsendstack.com/ - it's free and very sporadic).…

Topic
Art & design — a classification, not a measurement. An on-box language model (Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-FP8, prompt version 1) read this channel’s own recent posts on 16 September 2026 and assigned it the closest of 31 fixed categories, at 92% confidence. This is a model’s judgement about what the channel is likely to be about, not a fact this register measured the way a subscriber count or a view count is measured — it can be revised on a later pass, and it carries no weight anywhere else on this page. How this classification works, and why it has no browse page of its own yet.

Engagement
12 posts held, back to 28 May 2024 — the reader has not yet reached the start of this channel’s public history, so older posts may sit further back, unread. Read across 1 page of Telegram’s post history, 20 posts per page.
Nothing published in the last 30 days. ERR and ER are rolling 30-day measures, so there is nothing to compute — we hold 12 posts for this entry, the most recent from 6 October 2025. An engagement rate over an empty window would be a number about nothing.

Hello everyone! After three years of email conversations, we're pleased to announce the release of version 2.0 of the Sligoil typeface.

Yo, people! A new typeface is out on Velvetyne and this one fell into the marmite of bizarre type. Letters is a display typeface available in regular and italic styles. Designed for experimental use, it performs best at large sizes. It derives from a historical interest in the depiction of paper within the realm of printed matter, such as teared ribbons and ornamental backgrounds. It’s a silly examination that tries…

Out now! Velvelyne, the custom font displayed everywhere on our website, is finally available for download (some of you have asked by mail how to get it, now it's finally available). Velvelyne was born from the skeleton or center line of Liberation Sans, which was treated with a script coded by Benjamin Dumont and executed by Raphaël Bastide. Manon Van der Borght and Mariel Nils then took care of this skeleton until…

Hello everyone, To avoid spam, we're going to close the comments associated with the Propaganda channel. The channel remains active. Thank you for your understanding!
📢 Welcome Pilowlava Atome! Guess what? We were contacted some time ago to create a custom version of Pilowlava! So, we're thrilled to introduce Pilowlava Atome, a new style added to the Regular, featuring perforations in the letters to mimic climbing holds. This custom version of Pilowlava, designed by Anton Moglia, is created specifically for our friends at the Atome climbing gym in Annecy, France. 🧗♂️ This proj…
Showing the 12 most recent of 12 posts we hold for @velvetyne. View and reaction counts are the latest single reading for each post, not a live figure, and a recent post is still accumulating both. A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999. Unmarked counts are exact. Text is reproduced from the public post preview and truncated for length.
