I love the word free. Who doesn't? It's the college student's favorite word!
In class last week, we found some awesommmme free font websites. It had never completely occurred to me that if the fonts on your computer were not enough, you could go online, find one you like, stick it on your computer.. and voila! Your new favorite font.
I would definitely recommend exporting your finished work as a pdf file so that everyone can appreciate your new font, as most computers will take your custom font and turn it into something ugly that came with the default settings... but yes. Anyway.
Who knew it was so easy to get just one font? I had always supposed new fonts just came on gigantic cds with hundreds of new fonts for big bucks, and were therefore not really high on my priority list... but that's why I go to college. I find out new stuff every day!!
Before I start sounding like some plastic advertisement, I'll just give you some of the sites we played with.
My favorite URL is the first one. Totally brings me back to middle school... the era of "da bomb." Gotta love it.
Enjoy the freeness of it all!!!
What an Awesome Year
