Decent-looking free fonts
For free fonts that don't make you cringe, check out Font Squirrel. Their goal is to be the best resource for high-quality, commercial-use, free fonts. I'm imagining some guy over there sitting in front of his computer sifting through submissions to find the ones that make the cut. "Barf." "Eeew." "Nasty." "Respectable!" "Barf." If you've seen something lovely somewhere, submit it for the good of humanity.

Thank you for this. English is my first language, but my English still ain't that good.

My sister just mentioned a new font on her blog, Chappysmom.com, yesterday. It was created by a Toyota - take a look

Always enjoy a great font! TFS this source that I didn't know!

Excellent! Thanks for the new resource. :)
I'm always looking for new fonts for the graphics I design for the website, and this looks like a great resource. I have been using abstractfonts.com which has a huge selection of pretty funky fonts. Thanks for the tip!

Ooh...marketing script. Me likey.
Download thousands of free fonts at http://www.webtoolhub.com/tn561379-fonts-collection.aspx
Thanks for this font link. I downloaded the first one you had listed only to realize that it is an Open Type font :(
Do you know of any converter out there to change Open Type fonts to True Type fonts?
I'm a true font nerd, so I should know if there is a downloadable utility to accomplish this, but sadly, I don't.
Hmm, why would you want to do that?
I like the Marketing Script too. Where I live, a similar script was used in the logo of a brand of refrigerators. Now the brand is gone but the logo remained in the collective memory, it's funny how that happens.
Thank you for the fonts, Jess!
I keep coming back to your blog for all these goodies :)
Thank you so much for sharing your font finds! I do graphic design as a hobby and am always looking for new fonts.
ooooh la la... new fonts!! already found some goodies... sweet link, thanks.
Thanks for the link!
Watching how they made the Toyota font was pretty creative and fun.
They DID post Scriptina, so I'm slightly skeptical... however, I'm loving the above!
Thank you for sharing!
My favorite is 1001fonts.com great site for free fonts:)
Its funny I got to a point where I was downloading so many I started to recognize them on the street and telling my friends what they were called... They called me a nerd but then I realized that there was actually an Iphone ap for that --apparently I'm not the only one who points out fonts.
I always appreciate your posts on dinky apps (I'm thinking of the photo oldifier) and cool fonts. Truly, your effort is not in vain.
Hey thanks for the link and the idea! I'm off to download some new fonts now. Very pretty stuff.
It's like you were sent from heaven to relieve my free font frustrations.
Thank. You. Jessica.
My favorite place for free fonts is kevinandamanda.com. Super, super cute
