Hravan, you could always learn how to make banners! It's completely and utterly addicting...and plus you get to use cool fonts! :-P I'd be perfectly willing to help you. :hug:



Thanks :) :hug: But I can't afford any of the programs.. :( Otherwise I would have been making banners for years :lol:

I think GIMP's free, isn't it? I use Photoshop Elements, so I doubt I'd be able help with GIMP, but I know Nurr and several other amazing graphic makers use it. :-D

I'd love to join the contest, but since I'm a founder, that probably isn't a good idea. :-P

Yep, GIMP is completely free. You can get it at gimp.net. I and quite a few others use it, and I'm sure any of us would be happy to give you a hand. I've used it, Photoshop Elements, and Photoshop CS, and I personally prefer GIMP (though this may be because I'm familiar with it).

For some reason I've had this weird obsession lately with really plain fonts. Just your normal Verdana, Helvetica, Times, etc. It's so weird. About the most scripty I've really wanted to get are violation and Fely. Anyone else go through phases like this?

Has anyone used/heard of Starstruck or Fairydust? I really like both.

^ haha I wish I could join the contests myself, but since I'd be hosting them...that would be awkward. :-P

The voting is up for the Font of the Month contest! Please come and vote for your favorite entries! :-D

@Melda - I have both of those fonts - and I especially love Stardust... it just works on so many of my graphics. :happy:

@SR - Hah, I know! The first contest was much fun... and by the way, voting for that contest is now posted, if some of you non-graphics makers want to vote, or those that did not enter the contest :teehee:


Also, I recommend watching Pandora & Esteleth's battle... some of those fonts I haven't heard of, and they look really cool. *surveys from teh trees*

*Nods* I don't think I'd previously heard of any of the fonts Pandora suggested, so I'm really glad we're doing the battle--more cool fonts! Weee!

EEP! My fonts aren't downloading? I had no idea!

*goes to check*

EDIT: You mean when you download they aren't appearing on your computer or..??

^ :blush: Oh, well, I went back a week or so ago and downloaded some fonts just fine, so I'm thinking my computer is just very messed up. :-P I think I downloaded Cezanne, Jefferson, and some others, and they're working perfectly right now. Yay for overusing Cezanne because it's just so gorgeous and it goes with everything! :-D
