Darkhomb Posted February 6, 2008 Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 (edited) CONSPIRACY and Roswell don't look bad, don't like the middle one. Thanks for starting this, I will try and search fonts when I get home. Edit - however for the roswell it doesn't say its free anywhereThe fonts presented on this website are their authors' property, and are either freeware, shareware, demo versions or public domain. The licence mentioned above the download button is just an indication. Please look at the readme-files in the zips or check the indicated author's website for details, and contact him if in doubt. If no author/licence is indicated that's because we don't have information, that doesn't mean it's free.

[stewart] Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 Wouldnt it be funner to design our own fonts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkhomb Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 That would be great, but seeing as we have a lack or help in the area who is going to do it? Feel free to if you would like to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[dteviot] Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 (edited) I like Neuropol , and it appears to be free Looking a bit more, more from same person/company, and free: http://www.myfonts.com/browse/foundry/larabie/Pretty sure we can find something close to the old Xenocide font.Note, ideally we want a font thats legible, and has most of the European characters.

kafros Posted February 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 (edited) Concerning the fonts, there are many useful utilities out there that make the whole procedure fairly easy. They usually have vector-based drawing features, so it's like drawing in Photoshop/GIMP with the pen tool! I am not an artist so the best I COULD EXPERIMENT with is to get a "concept picture" of the font that you could provide and try to draw it into a font (my pen table could help). I CAN'T GUARANTEE ANYTHING, and I won't be able to start until March due to the exam period. Nevertheless, anyone could give it a try, but first we need a concept to be basen on Edited February 7, 2008 by kafros Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Mad] Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 I think Neuropol and Roswell are my two favorites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[Mad] Posted February 11, 2008 Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 Wha not have a forum-wide poll? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkhomb Posted February 11, 2008 Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 I agree, If I have time I will try to use all the fonts on the same couple test words and we can vote which we like for what part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which means that datacontrol is not a contender. Pity, because otherwise I like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kafros Posted February 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 Guess what, only Brave New Era, DIGITAL, Electric City and Neuropol support lowercase xD So, will we pick among them or should we look out for more? In addition, will use one of the others as upper-case-only? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
