"Hi, my name is Dickie, and I've got a font addiction..."

How many of you would be sitting in the audience, waiting for your turn behind the podium? My guess is quite a few. And why not? They can provide a feeling for text somewhat akin to what background music can do for a movie (both good and bad).

Even though you probably wouldn't use many of these fonts for business proposals (we'll cover another font set later for that purpose).

A few examples (Lemon Chicken, A Yummy Apology, and Wild Monkeys):





Share and enjoy!
