 First posting - you said:
"I'm looking for the font that they use on their website ...."
Second posting - you say:
"I was after the lettering of the name "good charlotte" on their website not the font Tempus Sans. "
I'm not a native english speaker - what's the difference? Do you search for the font with which the words "good charlotte" and many other words (i.e. on the navigation bar) are written or don't you?
You see, I sometimes like to be a little bit sarcastic, i.e. when people think that music-lovers are fontaholics at the same time and vice versa. :)
The other day my search engine brought me to the website of www.goodcharlotte.com, there I had a look on the letters on the start-screen and saw, they were written with the font "Tempus Sans ITC". Today I looked a little bit closer, say next page, and I saw, there are two fonts more used, a red one and a multicoloured one. Unfortunately, you didn't say which one you like most...

Hmm, I'm not sure what I'd like to moderate. I can't say I'm really good in any of those topics... possibly I could do something in Site Promotion and Commerce?

[quote]@alex:imported, but no usernames.... how much does that bother you guys?
btw, can the quoting should be fixed for everyone, not only the superuser.[/quote]
Last things first - as usual - Quoting works! Good!!
Imported but no usernames. Are you suggesting that we might see one day [over here that would mean a day, but no certainty about which year or decenium] what has been written ... but not by whom? Isn't it possible to include these names? I think I understand the problem with having to log-in for AF and the forum seperately and I tend to agree that that would be ridiculous. But is it really impossible to keep the old forum up as an archive? Searchable? Who said what about what, when?
Other thing, Alex, I can not see some background info anymore. Not urgent but it did help.
btw, can I have the fish?

Andrew, you know I am a fan of your fonts, they do look really good & are very detailed. But you should optimize your fonts.
Some computers crash with just one intersecting contour in a font.
You can and should edit the points when making fonts.
your designs are good, you have a lot of style so I hope this doesn't sound like I am being rude, but it's not that difficult to trace a glyph into a font program that looks cool, but has 900+ points and intersecting contours...
Not only will validating your fonts make them smaller files, they will make your fonts look better too, by ensuring the points are in the exact positions they should be in.
Whenever possible remove redundant points, correct intersections. If you do this you will see that you could possibly remove entire contours from a glyph with incorrect direction, or that overlap, or that intersect. This will reduce the file size dramatically!
And though you may not have encountered this problem yet, believe me, these flaws in a font do crash computers and will, and a font that crashes a computer... well, it's not a good thing.
I didn't always fix these things either, but now I always make sure my fonts are free of errors.
I made it a point to thoroughly understand my software & all that it as well as the fonts I create with it, are capable of.
Anywho, your fonts are really good, but without optimizing them I am sure that some who wanted to use them were unable to.

I'd say, buying fonts is fun. I've recently bought a good set of fonts I needed – not really, I'm just a fontaholic and desperate for that retro feeling so I try to sell that kind of atmosphere to my clients – from a foundry which I shall not name in honour to the Italian law against free advertising.
Not just downloaded them all in a second but even received a cd for every set with a LOVELY design on each cover, based on the theme, the very atmosphere in which the designer(s) found the inspiration to draw them. Just great.
Still, if you're an amateur or a freelance in his/her early years of work it can be frustrating to look at the shiny windows of the fontshops and stick to the free fonts - although some of them are really great.
See, I'm a graphic designer and I worked ten years in daily newspapers and publishing houses. Since 2005 I work on my own, caring my clients and looking for new ones. I've recently bought a new, large house in the countryside – I should move there by early December – and haven't got so much money at the moment.
I definitely stare, drooling, at the great, great set – oh, fuck the Italian law, we Italians are all outlaws, aren't we? – named «Luxury» from House Industries and – good Lord – I have to wait because 250$ is approximately the price for a cheap wardrobe (closet for the yankees, says my dictionary) I truly need. As I have to wait to buy a car larger than the one I own to drive me along the 60 kilometres that will hide me and my dogs from the large mass of people I'm fleeing from and nontheless I still work with. And none of us would steal a car, right?

Just curious if anyone has any suggestions for a couple good matches with Scrypticali. I love the font, but it's looking kind of weird with most that I'm trying it with. I need at least 2 othe fonts, as I'm working on a brochure.
Cheers!

Sure. But those are probably all heavily compressed jpgs. That's not crisp enough. and highres scans? I doubt it. Most scans I see on the web are plain garbage. Take my advice: make your own scans. Good ones.
