So here's a bunch of fonts I've collected (simply found elsewhere on the internet, mind you, none are mine but this one is!) over the years, and used and loved the bike-jeezus out of, for quite a long time. If anybody's upset about any of them being free-for-the-giving-away on this page as such, please contact me and I'll right quick remove anything that irks a creator, as I know myself how irked I get when I create something and people disrespect it by careless dilution or demeaning of it, or worse yet, claim it as their own. But this isn't about me, this is about making beautiful art happen, and loving the folks that help you do exactly that, and there are plenty of credits and README's and other little notes included in most of the .zip files, wherever they were there to begin with, and after a day I've got the fourth "NOTES/LINKS" column , which surely relates more than you'd ever want to know about a free font. ENJOY! |

fridaythe13th.zip | 20 KB | good old Jason Vorhees' favorite, I needed it to mouseover from the "A new beginning" poster to this. | |
Friz Quadrata Regular.ttf | 63 KB | now, many years before L&O was ever on TV (pre-Sept 1990) I already new all about Friz Quadrata from Raymond Pettibon's prolific art for my favorite band in high school, Black Flag. I was into x-actoing out paper stencils and fabric painting onto shirts, and Testor's painting all of the bands I liked on my crappy skateboard. hehe, Variflex! | |

vigilante-typeface-corp_vtc-nuetattooscript.zip | 111 KB | looking for a tattoo font, I came across this, and almost used it for a shirt. warned properly by WolfbainX's © license, I kept it out of idiot baby hand$. |
Inspired by DIR2HTML 1.1.0's first crack at the directory (of course it didn't produce "samples" images, or do any research or linking, or digging through of hard drives for examples of years-ago art produced) it surely opened a fine can-o-worms that kept me big-busy for a couple of days, and I wouldn't have done all this without it. I'd been looking for something like that ever since the bastard webhost stopped spitting the Apache-powered automatic directory listing when it changed ownership a coupla years ago. telling me "Forbidden You don't have permission to access abcdzyne.org/.../ on this server." instead. New idiot tech support people had me change permissions of freaking everything inside the folders, even after I had changed the folder permissions to 644. Limedomains has suffered some serious downgrading... alas... still dirt cheap, though! but "you get what you pay for" wasn't proven for many years.
