Are you going to post shots from Windows GDI greyscale?

I have posted new screenshots from my testing with Werner's ttfautohint library. Goto http://code.newtypography.co.uk/

Have tested - UbuntuFont, Vera Sans, Vera Sans Bold, Playfair, Copse.

Looking good.  The shots so far are from the biggest headache, Windows GDI Cleartype, but i will also soon post shots from Windows DirectWrite (FireFox 4 & 5), where the autohinter creates superior font rendering than ye olde manual hinting imho :)  Needless to say that autohinter is giving good results with Freetype engine too.
