Seeking shitty fonts.
« on: April 27, 2015, 05:19:06 pm »
I am in desperate need of some non-standard fonts, which need to be terrible. Not necessarily illegible, but I'll take those as well.

@Footjob, you can microwave most grains I've tried pretty easily through the microwave, even if they aren't packaged for it.

Hard science is like a sword, and soft science is like fear. You can use both to equally powerful results, but even if your opponent disbelieve your stabs, they will still die.

Augh.
Who's idea was this?!

edit: Oh, and to actually contribute, I've heard a lot of hate about Papyrus.

Papyrus is OK in moderation.

It crossed the line when James Cameron used it for Avatar promotional materials.

Just look for any sizeable "Free fronts" pack. You will find plenty of horribly kerned, Horribly hinted, visually horrible fonts within, I guarantee it.

I mean, just look at some of these offerings.

If you can't find a suitably horrible font in a collection like that, you just aren't looking hard enough.

What's wrong with Papyrus? Technologically speaking, it is a well made, well kerned, well hinted TTF font of professional quality!

I mean, next you will start bashing on Comic-Sans!


The font you should really be bashing is Helvetica
And its abysmal clones, like Arial --Simply because they are SO GODDAMNED OVERUSED.

Look up the D&D sourcebook "Immortal's Handbook." Use the font they use for the headers in that. It's the worst font I've ever seen.
