Welcome to my redesign - okay, I'm kidding. This is a temporary "interval" theme. It didn't take too long. I am still redesigning but mean while, I'm putting this up. Why? I have some other projects I need to get stuck into, which reduces my time a little. I'd also like to contemplate my redesign a bit as I'm currently unsure about its direction. To understand more and the reasons behind my interval theme, read I haven't redesigned, but stay tuned!

Nyssa’s Top 10 Fonts

What with missing my last two Saturday Colour Schemes articles, I decided to put it on hold until the new year. In it’s place this week, I’ve decided on an article about fonts - my favourite and most used of course. I did a similar post a very long time ago. Well over a year ago in fact, on my old blog. I felt it was time to pay another visit.

Almost all designers I know use fonts for something, whether they’re a web designer or a graphic designer. Even non-designers use fonts quite often. It’s important to use the right fonts for the right purposes. This list has a variety of fonts from serif to sans-serif, and I think just one script font which can be useful on the odd occasion. Hopefully some people will find a new font from this list, though I know some of you will know some of them already! Be sure to check the licenses before using them for commercial purposes! The list is an alphabetical order, so there is no preference to the number 1 spot.

10. Tallys | License: Free (refer to font page for more information)

Obviously, I use many other fonts as well, though I tend to use the above fonts for a variety of things over other fonts (with the exception of common fonts like Arial, Verdana, Georgia etc). I may continue this another time as I come across more fonts.
