Font Resources for Web Designers
The Best Website to Download Free Fonts!
I really wanted to share this cool font site with our readers – I have come to rely on it for designing new sites and adding some added flair to older sites. UrbanFonts is the name of the site and is the one place I recommend for free fonts as well as paid for fonts.
- UrbanFonts – www.urbanfonts.com
The site is easy to navigate, search and browse. The fonts are organized by useful categories which will save you the time and headache of scrolling through long lists. Not to mention it will help you stay focused on choosing the right font style for your project. Unlike other free font sites, these guys seem to do a really nice job separating the “wheat from the chaff” and include what I consider some of the best fonts on the web. If you don’t like what you see in the free downloadable fonts area, UrbanFonts also offers a neat selection of affordable high-quality fonts. The other nice feature of the site is that there is a good selection of well written articles about fonts – helpful even for the more experienced designer. If the articles are not enough for you check out the UrbanFonts Blog and Forum.

Thanks for this compilation!
That’s a pretty good font site, I’ll definitely use that. Much more usable than 1001fonts.com.
Another good site is http://www.dafont.com
Nice Collection. If you could provide arabic style fonts collection, like Calligraphy style.
Good resource.
I was reading an article the other day discussing the importance of a link or button’s size in relation to the ergonomics of being able to click it easily. Fonts are similar in that you can turn off a visitor that has difficulty using it.
