Here are 3 beautiful pretty scripties that I found on Omniglot just now:

Curvetic - Simon Ager
Betacap - Polly
Handaues - Merrill Asp

Now tell me what you think of them! And this is what I think of them:

OMG! PRETTY SCRIPTIES! YAAAAAAAAY! Mr. Green

Curvetic seems quite boring to me... just curves, not much interest in it.

Betacap is quite good, seems a little random to me though, the letters don't show much resembelance to each other, some very small others quite big.

Handaues is nice, I like the runic feel to it. I think I like this one the most.

I like all of them but I'm not that crazy about Handaues. Normally I'm a big fan of runic scripts but this one's just I don't know how to put it though. Maybe if the "font" was different it would look better. They're all nice though.

Hmm... yeh.. I suppose, I think I like the combination letters of Handaues, they seem more ornate and beautiful. I agree with you that it does lack some things that I cannot pinpoint though...

I don't see what's especially special about any of the three. Just going on esthetics, though, I think Handaues is both prettiest and most "coherent", esthetically. Betacap definitely looks as though its various letters were invented by at least two different people; "you invent the even letters, I'll invent the odd ones" or something like that. Curvetic is "esthetically coherent", but "it all looks like wheels" and it'd be difficult to write cursively.
My ranking (of these three):
Handaues: first out of three
Curvetic: third out of three
Betacap: sixth or seventh out of three. ("Simon, you do know, don't you, that you can't give a negative score?")

Agıšá is so beautiful and so Tengwar-like, and probably impossible to read because the letters are all next to each other, unlike my Fupvarin and such where even thought the letters are similar, there are still gaps between them

I personally like Etháre the most! Especially the sample with the calligraphy pen! It is extremely beuatiful.

I love them both. And just so you know the creator of Etháre is on the ZBB. I forget his nickname though.
