The freeware fonts have also been cleaned up and improved. Four have been completely remade: Comic Zine, Gothic Ultra, Kool Ding (added more dingbats to the existing ones) and Princess. My 70’s Ding was cleaned up and some new stuff added. Currently I’m in the middle of updating the retail fonts, about half of them are already available in opentype format and of course basic truetype and postscript versions are still available. Also, check out the site redesign.

The new freeware font Giant Head is a huge hand-drawn slab serif! Lavender Script is a brush-drawn script face in the copperplate style, it’s very opentype savvy! I’ve had a lot of requests for this and it’s finally here. The Vinyl Icons Collection is now available in Windows & Mac Leopard formats!

Synthetique is a new free font that was designed as a 17 point pixel font and then converted to round outlines. When used at 17pts it looks perfect on screen. Use it larger for a bold look. Hello to everyone on my feed list! Tell your friends! ; )

Parsley Script is a new script face done in the pointed brush style. This font contains alternate endings to give a more realistic look.

Confection is a fun new non-connecting script face. It’s frosted with swirling peaks of whipped cream and whimsical stems of pulled taffy. The opentype version is caramel filled with delicious ligatures and alternates.

Save Her showcases many enviromental issues that we are facing today. Included in this dynamic clipart font are such topics as: global warming, green energy sources, organic, recycling, fair trade, etc. 20% of the profits from Save Her will go to a charity of my choice.

Learning Curve has had a major update! This font mimics traditional cursive lettering practice worksheets but is more modernized and a style that I developed from my own handwriting.
