I really like Akzidenz-Grotesk now, thanks to trinary.

It's one of my favourite sans-serif fonts.

Re: Typography

Have you guys ever used WhatTheFont?
It seems like it would be a very cool system, but I can't seem to get it to work.

Well i know that
that just makes it better

It's just people like complaining that some characters look like Helvetica. But the truth is that it only does if you squish some of the letters, and doesn't every sans font look helveticaish? you just need to squish it the right way.

huh. helveticaish. I invented a new word

calibri is pretty good if used well, e.g. rhy's imagery

I can't believe I've never figured this out before.

What's rhy's imagery?

I'm assuming any graphic image that Rhy has created is what he was driving at.

somewhat
specifically ones that use calibri bold

Re: Typography

I love Futura, especially bold and italicized. I also hold a deep love in my heart for Guilder, Gotham (not black), Bodoni (my go-to) and all Cape-Arcona fonts.
But there are probably lots I'm not mentioning.
