October 7, 200718 yr Hello everyone. I've been doing a lot of photoshop stuff and I can never seem to find the right font to use. I was hoping this could be a thread where we shared the cool fonts we have. Heres some that I found today just looking at one site (dafont.com) : http://www.dafont.com/starcraft.font http://www.dafont.com/pepsi.font http://www.dafont.com/sega.font?psize=xs http://www.dafont.com/esp.font?psize=xs http://www.dafont.com/metal-gear-solid.font?psize=xs
October 7, 200718 yr that is probably the best site to find fonts, but from what Ive read in alot of sig forums and tutorials its alwayz best just to use standard fonts like arial.

October 7, 200718 yr Author that is probably the best site to find fonts, but from what Ive read in alot of sig forums and tutorials its alwayz best just to use standard fonts like arial. :warning: Good to know. Thanks man Arial seemed so basic I didn't even try it lol...does this rule apply for beginners only perhaps?
October 7, 200718 yr alot of people use the basic fonts not only beginners. chosing and placement of font is one of the hardest things of making a sig imo.
October 7, 200718 yr Does this rule only apply for beginners, perhaps? No, definitely use really basic fonts. Not necessarily Arial (I find Arial to be too thin and sleek), but try to keep it generic most of the time -- like, here, I'll use myself as an example... The sig you see at the bottom of my post uses a font called "Anderson Supercar". Arial and every other font that I would normally have just didn't fit the sig. Anderson Supercar fit this particular situation perfectly, whereas Arial was too thin or smooth and Times New Roman was too formal in appearance and too tall, for example. The two fonts I use most are Anderson Supercar and Visitor; if you ask me, those are the only fonts you'll need up to a "moderate" skill level. Disclaimer: Different techniques will require different approaches, so more abstract texts are still appropriate in certain cases.
