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.

Georgia (I use it with everything, like AIM, papers, etc.) and Times New Romans (CAPS). My all time favorite.

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.

I'm beginning to love Calibri on the 2007 version of Word - it's so much better than Timew New Roman.

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.

Same here. It's very nice. I use it on all my papers since I'm to lazy to change whatever font I want but Calibri is nice.
