Yes, another font-aholic chiming in. I still have fonts backed up on floppy disks if that says anything about how long this passion of mine has gone on.

Top 35 Favorites Fonts (doesn't include webdings of any sort):
A&S Black Swan, AdineKimberg-Script, Adler, Bambino, BlueCake Autospaced, Bottled Fart (yeah, I know, gross name), ChopinScript, Comet Negative, Comicate, Dyer, Fluoxetine, Freebooter, Hannibal Lecter NFI Demo, Harrington, Kayleigh, Linenstroke, Minstrel, Oil On The Water, PetraScriptEF, RedStar, Scrap Baby, Scrap Cursive, Scrap School, Scythe, Sketchbook, Sketchy, Symphony in ABC, Texas Hero, Thumping, Tiranti Solid LET Plain:1.0, Trubble, University, Witchcraft Normal, Words of love, Worstveld Sling (family)

There are many more favorites, but these I'd swear were all freebies vs. the purchased ones from LetteringDelights and CK.

Enjoy!

I am new and I just had a baby and would love beautiful fonts but don't know where to get them from. Any suggestions?

Dafont.com is my favorite site for free fonts. Congrats on the new baby!!!!

Does anyone know where i can get CK Curesive for free.

Alison, this is a lovely idea in principal, but most of us are inveterate collectors and it is so difficult to see a lovely font and not download and install it. Unfortunately the downside of installing all your fonts to the Windows Fonts directory is that everytime you open your programme, windows will then load hundreds of fonts as well. Therefore when it comes time to do some journalling, you have to trawl through all of them to find the one you want and unless you have a fantastic memory, you will never remember what half of them look like.

What I do is to have a separate Fonts Folder in my MY Documents directory where I install the unzipped fonts. These I store under two different folders "Handwriting" and "Graphical". I also have a lovely piece of software called The Font Thing which is a font management programme. It searches my hard drive and displays every font that I have on my hard drive and when I click on the name of the font, it displays every character of the font in it's preview pane, not just the usual test strip of "The lazy brown fox etc". It also gives me the capability of installing and uninstalling the particular font that I wish to use at any time. This means that (in my case I have about 400 fonts on my computer) my computer does not have to load 400 fonts every time I open PSP, which frees up processing memory.

The font thing is a freeware programme and is available by accessing the link below:
