I like this illustration because the artist uses popart which makes very interest and funny. Also I think that the artist well uses layout. It seems more than one dimension.

This is my favorite illustration because it gives two different feelings.
The background with the color and the vertical lines gives an urban/city vibe.
The image in the foreground is a tropical looking image and it gives the idea of paradise in the city.

this is very modern looking

VERDANA is a font most used by companies.

LUCIDIA GRANDE is a font that is very comic looking

This font is a combination of decorative and script because it is in the form of graffiti which people draw/write in. It is also serif. It is my favorite because it’s fun and looks funky

This is decorative because on the top of the letters is frost/snow and the letters look icy.

This is script because it looks like someone wrote it, and because it looks like my handwriting: messy and somewhat random.

This is sans serif because it has no lines off of the ends of the letters.

This is serif because it has little lines off of the ends of the letters.

Fonts

Arial: Arial font is a pretty commonly used font. It's one of my favorite fonts to use. Even though its a sans-serif font, it's pretty easy to read and easy on the eyes.

Courier-new: courier-new is a very retro font, it looks as though you're typing with a typewriter. It has smooth letters with smooth serifs.

Verdana: Verdana is a wider font than most other fonts. Its pretty smooth, easy to read. It looks good, but I wouldn't want to read a whole block of text with it.

Georgia: Georgia looks like a classic font that would be good to type papers with. It's a typical typing font such as the Garamond font and Times New Roman.

Vladimir script is a very formal, eloquent font whose
un-capitalized letters (by nature of script font) are very
close together and are connected to each other.












Loft is a very simple, narrow, and THIN sans serif font.


Stemple Garamond is an ordinary serif font. There is nothing
really special about it, and it resembles Times New Roman.


Old Caps is a decorative font the embraces both an old and modern look.



Space Toaster is by far my favorite of all-time. I don’t know why,
but I fell in love with it when I was little and have so ever since.

Miedinger

Sans Serif: This font uses bold faced letters to emphasize power and importance, this is a great font for headlines.









Clarendon

Serif: This font uses overemphasis on the serifs to make it both decorative and easy to read.









Sweetheart Script

Script: This script font is simple enough to read easily, yet it easily flows together to make it look very unified.









Kid Writing

Decorative: This font is designed to look like the writing of young children, it is a useful font for use with children.









Zoinks

Best Overall: This is a decorative sans-serif font that is easy to read and also eye-catching

Font Design

This font is Serif because the letters have strokes or teardrops. I like this font design because it looks very simple but also very artistic. This font would be used to for cover page of a book or some headlines.

This font is a type of Sans Serif because all letters have same thickness. This font is used for advertising or headline because its thickness and colors are interesting enough to catch its readers’ eyes. I love this font because it looks so cute with shortness of the letters and their beautiful colors.

This font is a type of Decorative because it looks very artistic and different from normal fonts in a book. I like this font design because it personalizes each letter and makes the letters look friendly. This font would be used for cards because it looks cute and gives some funny and cheerful feelings to readers.

This font design is a type of Script. Although it looks very simple, it successfully makes letters look fun with blank space and lines of each letter. For example the first letter, T, has some blank space between its horizontal and vertical line. Also curved lines of each letter create some beauty in the letters. This letter would be used for cover page of children’s books.

This is my most favorite font design, and it is calligraphy. I love this font design because each letter has some movement and various thicknesses. I think this font design also makes letters as an individual art work.

Font Assignment

(This font is called "Bokonon." It's in the Serif category because the upper case letters have the curve at end. It is also in my opinion Decorative becuase it is like a bold pencil writing and is very "scratchy", but still legible. This font is the best in my opinion because is is both Decorative and Serif which in my opinion makes a good team for fonts.)








(This font is called "Zapped." It is called zapped because it looks like there is electricity going through it. It also have some italic in it which in my opinion doesnt look that good, but its still alright I guess. Each symbol that is in zapped font has some boldness somewhere in it and I think that is very nice and make each of them more recognizable. I would put this font into the Sans Serif category because clearly ther is no curve on either of them.)




(This font is called "Airstream." This font is in the Script category because this font is writable and common for some people. This font is simple and in my opinion it is plain and give the mood like "heres my writing and its neat and script," something along those lines. But it is a nice font.)





(This font is called "Stardust." It is definetely in the decorative category because after each symbol, there is a star. The letters in general are simple to read and plain, but with the stars, it is more impressive and outgoing.)





(This font is called Edmund. It is in the Sans Serif category because it is not fancy and has no curves. It is simple and is western in my opinion. It is like the heading of a old day western bar or hotel or something. It is also bold with a heavy stroke.)

Fonts

This font is the best font I choose. It is San Serif. It is simple and metallic because of interesting negative spaces. The word harmony is not that great because of the number 4 and space between DJ and 4, the style of the font is very interesting.

This is Decorative font. It is interesting to me because three fonts are mixed. The word, “Storm” is San Serif with Serif because of the letter O. Moreover, the bottom part, “PARANORMAL INVESTICATIONS” it is San Serif with interesting negative spaces.

This font is Script because it looks like handwriting. I thought the letters are interesting because they look three dimensions, and like Serif, they have tales.

This font is Sans Serif. Unlike Serif font, Sans Serif font dose not have dips or tales. Interesting on this font is the negative spaces in the letter P, O, and R.

This font is Serif with Sans serif because “m” and “Ireland” has dips or tales. Interesting on this font is the m and I. They both are bigger than other letters in order to be empathized.

Fonts

This font is called Unicode 0024. This is very futuristic as well. It looks like it is something that you would use on a computer program. It is slanted so it is much more difficult to read. This is very difficult no matter what the case.
This is called Genotype. It is very similar to Futu. This is definitely easier to read then Futu. They distinguish the "x" from the "y" unlike in Futu where it is obvious how hard it is to see. Also each of the letters are more drawn out for example the "l" has a longer bottom part than in the font Futu. I like this better than Futu.
This font is called Rosecube. This is more old fashioned looking. It looks more 3D because of the shadows behind it. This is much easier to read than Futu. There are some serifs which distinguish each letter. This is my personal favorite out of the ones i choose because it is very simple to read and understand.
This is called Futu. This font is quite futuristic in the way that the letters are shaped. It is hard to read because of the amount of roundness each letter has. You probably could get letters mixed up when using this font. It would probably used more for using big letters than for longer documents.

This is called Rock It! This is all together very easy to read because of the lack of serifs. They added some like marks on each letter to make it look like its on flyer for a band or a concert. They give it that look of roughness. I like it, its easy to read.

Fonts

This font is clearly Serif because it shows the dips and tails. I like this one because it's not too complicated, but at the same time it is not too plain.

This font is Script because it is similar to someones handwriting. I like this one because although it does have the Script look, it also adds hearts for decoration.

This font is clearly Sans Serif. The letters are very plain and have no dips or tails. The only thing making this font interesting is the random scratches and lines behind each letter. Also, this font has no lowercase letters which can come in handy for different things such as headings.

This blocky font is Decorative. Each letter contrasts from another. While some letters have white backgrounds and black letters, the others are the exact oppisite.

This font is my favorite. Even though it is Sans Serif and does not show the dips and tails, it is still pretty cool. This font is pretty interesting because of the different decorations on the letters. This clearly makes up for the lack of interest in the letters themselves.
