And if you have tons and tons of fonts that slow your system down, Its good to get a font manager. There is a freeware one here:

Let me know if you find them useful.. (perhaps this topic should be sticky??)

[Tech_neck13]

Well that post should be stickied...

I have a font manager right now I just don't know how to use it...

[PhotoComix]

Badassfeline and Capn Longdagger if you want you could post the links also here http://www.gimptalk....Way-7046-1.html
a think is a useful additional info for that topic

Badassfeline that font tool you quote allow temporary installation of font?

[badassfeline]

yes, i believe it does, but if you want a really good manager, i recommend Extensis Suitcase /www.download.com/Suitcase-for-Windows/3000-2316_4-10497472.html?tag=lst-0-2 its pricey though.It lets you create temporary fonts, custom sets for use and allows you to set preferences for different programms. I have a disc that i bought with 10000 commercial fonts on it, and its been a godsend for managing them.

[PhotoComix]

Usually i avoid to quote software that are no open source and not even free for personal use.

But your suggestion seems quite interesting...and i believe that no any rules could be fair if doesn't allow exception.

So i will add it to the topic soon...as interesting ,handy but commercial tool.

Extensis is now OnetoOneSoftware and all his SW are really good, mostly Shareware, i knew the PS plugins, i overlook that font tool

Don't forget http://www.dafont.com/ >_>

[Rika001]

Very nice and useful links.

badassfeline:
I found the Scrapvillage one the most useful because other ones that I tried, messed up :s:
Might have just been moi broswer though. Thanks a ton though! I love the fronts ^^

other ones that I tried, messed up

Hmm. I checked the links and they are all working fine for me!

Also, PC.. i understand what your saying about commercial tools. I obviously would say to only get something like Extensis if GFX was your main major hobby or even in some cases - your job. If you are going to download hundreds (or thousands in some cases) then your system will become slow and may even crash. I agree with open source and whatever you can get for free is great, but you can buy good commercial software at bargain prices if you shop around a little.

[Rika001]

Well, I think it's just because of some other program I just install on my computer....

Or, my browser was just saving those ones under an invaild file type....

But none the less, I got at least 25 new fronts, like Christmas in July (August) ^_^

[PhotoComix]

Badassfeline i saw that your the link is for a trial version, do you know if it's complete or if some basic features are removed?

[badassfeline]

Its fully functioning but its got a time limit and a nag screen. I think its 30 days, but you better check first as companies often change it.

For Linux users.. I dont know if this is helpful at all...:

[XyllyX]

Linux users kinda get the best of both worlds. They can use truetype fonts as well as postscript fonts.

[Gunther]

Gimp users can also use PS fonts on Windows, but only in programs like Gimp that support them. Just put the PS fonts into another directory and add it to your Gimp fonts folders.

[Yellow]

Heh, I was wondering if I could download fonts to GIMPshop, although I had an idea that it was possible. Guess I'm not into the whole "exploring" thing. Anyway, thanks though, I'll definitely download some. :). Tee hee. Perhaps I'll edit too and add a few links if I maybe "Google it." Hmmmmmm. Thanks guys!

[shockwave]
