Free Fonts

You know you got ‘em - so cough ‘em up. What do you have bookmarked for free/shareware font sites? (no, this isn’t “script related”, but since I make the rules, I can break them) ;-)
Abstract Fonts [found via a stolen moment]
Chank
1001 Free fonts
Larabie fonts
Font Freak

(Warning: some of these font sites love pop up ads… surf at your own annoyance)

Many of those have the same fonts… would love any links you have to more “original” fonts…

    dave bastian — a very few, very nice fonts.
    pixel fonts are very little.

    actually, i’m glad you mentioned this……i’ve never been much on downloading fonts (word perfect has tons that i like) but every once in a while i see one i like and when i download it……i dunno, it just doesn’t show up. where should i save them to when i download them?

  9. -e- Says:

    Well, it’s not much to look at, and nowhere near ready, but you can access several thousand fonts at my site (be kind, I’m closed for remodeling.)

    Heather - I recommend using Adobe Type Manager to install/manage fonts. If you can’t get that software, this tutorial on about.com has instructions on how to install fonts manually. I also found some other (similar) instructions on other sites (in case that doesn’t work) - but you do need to actually install them to get them to show up. HTH

    Free Handwriting Fonts and there’s another Danish site with great hand drawn icons and handwriting fonts - I can’t find it in my bookmarks!
    Whew! Here it is.

  16. Johanka Says:

    P22 Type Foundry, I know they are not free, but the collection made after the handwriting of famous artists is worth paying for. P22 Cézanne is my absolute favourite so far. :-)

    apostrophic lab has a lot of fonts not found anywhere else. just click “grab” when you get to the site and start clicking down the list. i guarantee they’ll have something you’ve never seen before.

  18. Jen Says:

    I like Font Magic, Nick’s Fonts and PizzaDude. I’m going to bookmark everyone else’s suggestions, too!

  19. laura Says:

    this guy has some different stuff, if you can get past the design and the french! his erotic fonts are pretty funny. graham meade’s stuff can be found at gemfonts. extreme fonts is a good repository for all the familiar fonts.

    i wish i was on my home computer - that’s where i have all my secret font sites ;) although apostrophic is pretty secret and i gave that one up.

  20. laura Says:

    ok, i am purging my whole list here:

    typoasis
    iconian fonts
    fontgarden
    fonts & things
    font pool
    the dingbat pages
    fresh fonts
    sassy fonts

    that’s it. all my font secrets. enjoy.

    Coincidently, I spent yesterday and this morning finishing up my font directory :) Kristine’s Font Organization - there’s some links on the sidebar that haven’t been mentioned yet! :)

  22. Jennifer Says:

    Just found this one: simply the best free font archive

  23. Amy Says:

    Can’t believe I’m admitting my insanity, but the guy at dividebyzero does some of the cutest, most original dingbats (tombats) I’ve ever seen. I mean, we’re talking baby-kissing, cat-cuddling, couples-smooching-in-the-park cute dingbat fonts.

    …and the fact that I’m willing to say such a thing about a font indicates to me that I am beyond help. If anyone needs me, I’ll be in the mental ward…
