Vista In Use:

Here is a fun example of Vista in use...

Spot the fake

I was thinking it would be smarter for me to buy an iPod off of eBay to save some money. I’m not so sure of that now considering there are so many counterfeits.

Apple only uses Myriad so what kinda junk is this?

BT Fleischman on sale...

I am so over the ridiculously expensive DTL Fleischman.

Buy the fabulous Bitstream interpretation while it’s on sale for only $29.25 a style.
It comes loaded all those goodies we expect in a good text face these days too.

PS... I can’t think of any time before where Bitstream had put their fonts on sale on MyFonts. Hopefully, we’ll see more sales like this from them in the future.

Graphik is use?

I’m pretty sure this isn’t Futura but is Graphik by Christian Schwartz

Another Reason to Love IKEA...

Hello All:

Custom type is irksome to the person (like myself) that wants access to it all. But don’t we love the results.

Here is a refined Century Italic to enjoy:

I also like the slabs they have added to the romans. Hmm... moderns and slabs mixed together—has this even been done before?

Don’t get me started on the IKEA Futura too. Love that too.

File your taxes for free!

To my US pals:

If you make less than 54,000 you can file your federal taxes for free (TurboTax is 30,000 or less).

and if you live in California and you made less than 155,416 you can file your state taxes for free.

Of course you still have to pay the government but at least you don’t have to pay to file.

Heck, Buy some fonts with the you’ve money saved by filing yourself.

Hope this helps some of guys and gals out there,

Mikey :-)
