When it was first used and wasn't so freaking popular, Scriptina was quite pretty, I thought. And then everyone and their mother started using it, and Scriptina started showing up on clothing labels, perfume bottles, you name it...and I just started hating the font. It's gross.

Agreed, that's pretty much how it happened with me. Overexposure to anything makes it lose its appeal, I guess. Although I tend to have a higher tolerance level for repetition than most people. xD I tend to lean towards Tahoma and Georgia, sometimes Verdana. I hate how different operating systems (PC/Mac) display fonts differently, though. I always think fonts look beautiful on my macbook and then look at the website on a PC and all of a sudden it's all pixely and choppy looking. :< P.S. what happened to the topic Rebs made that was like this?
