Worst fonts ever!

[jcuminale]

i more so hate these silly font bashing sessions... the issue is not the font, but the design(er). all fonts, even comic sans, papyrus, old english, even brush script, etc. have appropriate uses. it is up to the design(er) to determine what is appropriate.

This one. Never did find out what it was. Finally had to vectorize it to use on customers jobs.

That's the same one they made me put on the boat! It looks so much better with peanuts...

Think I'll run a contest to see who can identify it.

Because 'landscaping' just screams 'Papyrus'

It is not the font you use so much as it is the design / layout / kerning.

Each have nich use even the bad ones you claim, but really is how you use it in your design / layout also kerning tighter can make it appear to look better.

Course if ya had any advertising training you know that if ya could use a broom to make letters etc., with the proper design / layout it would look outstanding

And thats my point here.... imho papyrus makes no sense for a landscaping business, especially on the side of the trailer, since its kinda hard to read....

I just got an order for 300 yard signs....

I had Helvitica chosen for the proof. (I like it, don't care to much trying to match it though with all the versions like anotherdog said.)

But the lady wanted Impact. I hate impact. I've hated since I first saw it which I think was back on windows 95. Impact does make a nice $ sign. Punn Intended.

mhm.... why the hate on Helvetica? I just discovered Helvetica Neue family and imho looks kinda nice, clean corporate feel to it...
