When you are looking at designing a new site or logo or wallpaper or letterhead, you want to find a good font. So in addition to the list of font files you will find 3 really nicely assembled collections of free fonts by Vitaly Friedman. I know there are many more, but these are good quality sites and should provide a good starting point to newcomers. Also check out http://new.myfonts.com/WhatTheFont/ if you saw a font and want to find out what it was. Stay tuned for brushes, textures, patterns and more every tuesday and friday until we run out of topics. :) And then we will make up some more. Enjoy.
