which consonant and which font?

Jan 16, 2011 at 21:40 [reply] Fonts for a portfolio.

I agree with vinz: just donate the buck and you're home-free! I mean, all this bla bla and trying to get away with it when all you have to do is donate a bloody dollar! I mean, the font designers here spend A LOT of time making their font, so you can download and use them. Most of them ask for a small donation in return, which I think is only fair. Be glad that there is a thing like donationware, where you DO get the whole font and it's up to YOU how much you donate!

Jan 16, 2011 at 21:35 [reply] Big question of Fonts legitimacy

You can find a lot of fonts that are 100% free. You won't need to credit the author, nor pay money. That way you'd avoid a (legal) headache.

Jan 10, 2011 at 09:58 [reply] What font is thissssss ?!

That is no font I believe, but someone's handwriting. The glyphs differ (y, h, e, etc).
You can try one of Kimberly's fonts: http://www.dafont.com/kimberly-geswein.d1468?page=1&text=You%27re+one+of+those+nice+things.

Dec 31, 2010 at 14:01 [reply] "free for personal use" - usable?

FREE FOR PERSONAL USE (once and for all):

1) You can use it FOR FREE on your computer, write your mother in law a death threat on paper, copy/paste a name tag for your hamster, paint it on a pita-bread, put cheese and tomato on and barbecue the lot, print it out and use it as a wallpaper for your toilet, etc.
2) You should PAY (donation as specified in the ReadMe, fixed price license as specified in the ReadMe, a bottle of beer, a greeting card or a free sex lesson as specified in the ReadMe - note the stress on the README file here) WHEN YOU USE IT COMMERCIALLY. As in: you design bra's, t-shirts, underwear using the font; you print a book, a newspaper, a poster using the font; you invented a beer, a lawnmower, a new car and use the font to market your invention or product; etc..

Any questions?

;-)

Ahhh
Yes, but I include license and info in the font itself! Ok, I have to admit, not very imaginative and comprehensive, but it is there. It reads: Donationware, or Shareware or the like and it refers to a ReadMe file being present in the .zip. Email addresses in the fontfile could be an interesting move: I used to do it, but I noticed a surge in spam coming my way ("Dearest Friends, my name is Miss Grace Mbuzu from Nigeria..." "An Iraqi made a fixed deposit of 1,800,000,000.00 US$ in the Hang Seng Bank of Hong Kong..." - you get it), since on sites like fontspace, the font info is visible for visitors and any idiot can harvest an email address when it's out in the open...

BUT, you have a point there, Koeiekat, about not naming the ReadMe file ReadMe.
Hmmm
Guess I should rename all of my Readme's...
Damn.

Have a good new year, all of you!

Ps: I always wanted to know Koeiekat: do you have a cat that looks like a cow???

Dec 31, 2010 at 07:59 [initial post] ReadMe

Ok
You create a font. You add a perfectly good ReadMe file, which (for those who don't get it) reads: READ ME!!!!
Then why-oh-why do people still ask what the conditions for use are???

??

it is beyond me

And.... girls dig guys with big fonts

Dec 30, 2010 at 13:39 [reply] Why there's no UTF-8 fonts?

hmmm, must have overlooked those. As I said, will add those in the future, but as I am in Birma right now, uploading is pretty crappy here (it is blocked by the wonderful gov't of this country). ;-((

And yes: most fonts that support a full character set are commercial! There are hardly any free fonts with the worx..

Dec 30, 2010 at 09:15 [reply] Why there's no UTF-8 fonts?

Check out this:

http://www.fontspace.com/hanoded-photography/moonlight-shadow

http://www.fontspace.com/hanoded-photography/rabbit-on-the-moon

They support most of the accents you crave. I will add the other glyphs in the future.

And an answer to your question as to why no on bothers to add the accents: because they're a hassle, take a long time and about 70% of the population (or more) don't use caron, hungarian umlaut, macron and the like!

Not a X-mas font per se, but it would be great for cards and all. AND it is AE, ae, Oslash, oslash and some other stuff you might like. THis font will hopefully be available on DaFont soon...
