You know that one font that you always seem to fall back on in a design?
That one font that always comes through for you in the end? Post your favorite font! Mine's JaneAusten - at least for "girl-based" designs. |

I like Harrison. It's a scriptish handwriting style font, really reminds me of my own writing a lot.

Ahh, Georgia. How could I forget that. It's the prettier version of Times New Roman.

I love capitalizing fonts... sometimes when you can't find one that works, capitalizing does wonders!

I love most comic book type fonts, like A.C.M.E. Secret Agent. I have font OCD though. I take more time dicking around with fonts than anything else when I'm in Photoshop. I've always liked black boys on mopeds as well.
I used to love kravitz, but then it started getting used too much. For standard fonts I like and use century gothic a lot. I loathe comic sans. |

Comic Sans drives me nuts! My law teacher prints everything out in that font. Times New Roman gets old really fast too. With all the MLA papers I write... ugh.

MMM I used to use Georgia and Times New Roman in everything.
I've moved on. Haha Arial Narrow is my new font. I use it for EVERYTHING. And I'm making it one of the main fonts we use for yearbook since I'm the editor. |

I actually like the pixel fonts of PF Tempesta Five and PF Tempesta Seven. I think Lane is a pretty hot font, cause it looks really clean. And occasionally, I use Garrison Sans.
I like Myriad Pro, too. |
