Fonts for Banners
Posted: Tue Jan 17, 2017 7:02 pm
This is a bit of a revival of this topic for the Banner Trade. Let's talk fonts!
What fonts do people use or would recommend for button making? Do you have your failsafe fonts that you always fall back on (like me)?
I’m really fond of Wendy, Ernest and 04b24 as pixel fonts. Wendy also has the heart, which I love. I think I rely on pixel fonts too much sometimes.
Violation is probably my favourite script font.
For serif fonts, I tend to stick with Georgia, Times, etc? I think they can look nice but can be tricky to work with at smaller sizes.
For san-serif, I like tall, skinny, condensed fonts like Tall Dark and Handsome Condensed. (I'm not sure if this button is that particular font, though.) and also chunkier ones like Impact. I also use regular fonts like Arial, etc. I should probably be a little more adventurous.
Also, does anyone else ever make buttons and love how the font looks but can't remember the name of the font and because you have about a million fonts installed you can never find it again? I need to start keeping track of what fonts I'm using better...
