40 New Free Fonts for Designer’s Needs

There have been hundreds of free fonts created this year, but we have surprisingly few good fonts that can be used for designer’s purposes. Do you want to get a font that will be most effective in your web environment? We are here to show you them. Remember however that font will dictate how the bodies of text will appear throughout your website. Choosing the font for your project you need to keep the overall layout of your website in mind. Pick a font that works well in site’s visual flow, and as letters are images themselves you should therefore consider font’s weight, style, kerning, and letter-spacing.

25+ Amazing Sunset Desktop Wallpapers

I’m sure that you’ve watched a sunset at least once in your life and I’m also sure that there are just a few people in the whole world who remain indifferent and insensitive to the beauty of this phenomenon. It’s hard not to become enchanted by the change of colours in the sky, by the soft colouring of the clouds when the luminous disk of fire is slowly going down the horizon.

It can be puzzling if we discuss about type using informal terms like thingies, slants and squiggles…
