All About Fonts : Part 2 : 10 Alternative Resources

Top Font Recourcesthis post is the follow up of “All About Fonts : Part 1 : Top 5 Resources“. In this post I will list some of the best alternative resources for fonts. It is not just a list from 6 to 10 , it is a complete new list because the intention of these websites are different. Main purpose of the websites before is to have the biggest list,and most fonts possible. but what they don’t have are special fonts made my people who don’t like to sent their font on a big list but prefer to show-em of at their own website/blog, and therefor much harder to find. This list is not ordered, there is no first place nor a last place since most of you know that one can be good at doing one thing and completely fail in the other. The websites I’m about to list all have completely unique fonts, created by their rightful owner. until 5/6 years ago I used this list to find my fonts but this list is outdated and hardly any link works. Here we go!

Hi and welcome to this tutorial where I am going to show you how you can combine “static” graphical headers with widget ready themes, until now some people prefer non-widget-ready-themes because they can simply have smooth looking sidebox titles with graphical headers that pop out of the team and add great value to their website presentation. The major downside of this is that you have to edit your themes manually and therefor need to have basic/to/advanced html skills, after reading this tutorial thats all history! I’m going to show you how you can add nice graphical headers on your widget ready themes.

All About Fonts : Part 1 : Top 5 Resources

Top Font RecourcesAs a designer, programmer, neo-blogger I know the importance of using the right font in the right place. The hunt for the right font and the most original fonts therefor is an ongoing battle between top designers. Myself on the other hand like to use fonts that represent myself in some way. the headers from the sidebox on this blog have the “FatBoy Slim” font, I like his music! My previous theme header had the Marlboro font because I used to smoke, I quit recently.

Anyway! I want to say something about every aspect regarding font, but in this post I’m going to limit to the best resources that are around, not the biggest ones, the nicest one. The criteria is simple, usability, and simplicity. Everyone hates to click through 3/4 pages before getting what you need, and I fill in under everyone… do you? Okay here we go!
