Zahari M. Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Hi Guys For those of you that care somewhat about typography, I would like to share with you a great deal that is going on right now until December the 8th I believe: http://www.myfonts.com/fonts/nootype/radikal/ This is an excelent font family. It is very similar in nature to Futura. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Futura_%28typeface%29 I bought the complete webfont family and the acompanying desktop fonts. 14 webfonts makes the set and thats 30 USD 14 desktop fonts makes the set and thats 30 USD What myfonts offer is a further discount if you buy a webfont and it's accompanying desktop font. So I got 28 fonts for USD 45!! In many ways, I think it's preferable to Futura. Futura has this unwanted ( to me ) characteristic that for a given font size, its noticeably smaller in pixel size compared to other fonts. The fonts above avoid this issue in that they are very similar in pixel size to other traditional fonts. We can also download these webfonts in varying line heights. For those that are on a tight budget, grab the standard weight webfont "Radikal" at 6 USD. It's perfect for H1 to H6 usage. As if you'd really know that I didn't work for myfonts Happy designing guys! Zahari Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diogo Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Thanks Zahari! MyFonts has always great deals here http://www.myfonts.com/specials/. It's a great page to check out from time to time. edit: the forum does the very irritating thing of including the punctuation dots on the urls when there is one (in this case I edited to correct). Would be so easy to exclude them when doing the string replace, or whatever method is used... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zahari M. Posted November 26, 2013 Author Share Posted November 26, 2013 Yep diogo, Myfonts is pretty cool! I'm not sure if it's because I had bought some webfonts from them and thus am a paying customer, but when I sign in to the MyFonts site, you are given the ability to temporarily try any of their webfonts on your website by including a javascript snippet customized for each webfont you want to try out. Very useful to see how it looks on your own web pages! Anyways, the font family mentioned above is truly an absolute bargain. Glad you liked it and thanks for editing the links Diogo! Happy designing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
