What's your favorite font?
« on: March 21, 2012, 11:59:44 PM »
I mean I know we all love serpentine-bold-italic, but what is your fave font to read or use in word processor programs.  I used to be a straight Times New Roman guy but recently I've really taken a liking to Cambria.  It is so soft, and easy on the eyes while reading.  Is there any way we can make thread text on goEMAW.com be in cambria font, even if just for a day?

Also, GTFOOMF san-seriff fonts.  Seriff's all day every day.

If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

MIR post

:surprised:
He pretty much said this word for word during the KSU 'cuse game.

Huh, I wasn't listening to anybody talking throughout that game.  I thought you were making a joke about MIR being the only person who could possibly know about the women's hoops court's font at muni.

When used properly Garamond can be one of my favorites.   Really depends on what we're using these fonts on?   Is this like a corporate memo/brochure or a wedding book design?

Comic Sans.   But only if you're a teacher of 6th grade or lower and your target audience eats paste.

Step on up.  Though not my fave.
