Pretty nice, but there seems to be a lot of 'l's. To be honest, it isn't extremely attractive, how about trying to make it a computerised version? Maybe, it'd look nicer? |

How?
There aren't that many l's, that's just a couple of sentences. _________________ Iwocwá ĵọṭãsák.

I think he means that some of the letters look like l's when written. Oh and btw:
OMG! PREEEEEEEEEEEEEETTY SCRIPTY!

I kind of liked it. It's definitely better than anything I've come up with so far.
The actual example of the writing is more attractive-looking and interesting-looking than the set-out of the alphabet.
I don't know that anything computerized or "more attractive" would necessarily seem that "natural". Maybe just practice at hand-writing it would be what you need. (IOW I think "bad handwriting" seems "natural" to me.)
OTOH if your conpeople have printing and/or computers, a computerized font would make good sense. |

How was my script on a scale of 1 to 10? _________________ Iwocwá ĵọṭãsák.

If 10 was the best then 10 if 1 was the best then 1. Or in simpler words:

YAY!
 
By the way, the Le people are one of the many races of humans in my conworld, but they're not technologically advanced. The Neiriko people are. Also, I haven't made a font yet. I think it would be a bit difficult, since the š's and the r's make the rest of the letters go up and down. _________________ Iwocwá ĵọṭãsák.

Indeed there's some African language which some nationalist there has invented a script for, to replace the more usual one they borrowed from some other language, which has a similar problem; you can find out about it on Yahoo! egroup "Neographies". Sorry I don't remember the name at the moment. [EDIT]: It's Mandombe.[/EDIT] But whoever posted about it [EDIT]: Philip Newton. [/EDIT] might know how they solved that problem.
In case no-one knows how to solve it at the moment, I think it would be worth solving; if you can solve it or get it solved, you (or your script) are (is) probably going to be a candidate for some award (like "Most Innovative Conscript of the Year" or something.)
At any rate you can be sure of getting a lot of interest, if you solve it.

The cheerlearder things are called kaoanis. It's an image I got from Wikipedia.
I'm leaving for vacation tomorrow. I will see you after. _________________ Iwocwá ĵọṭãsák.
