Just a little tip in case anyone is having a similar problem. For the past few weeks I’ve had issues with several websites (er, many) not displaying fonts correctly. Usually, only the titles, but at times all of the text on a site.
Here’s an example of how one site was displaying fonts for me (google chrome on the left, firefox on the right):

I came across this extremely useful and quick tip for fixing (at least for now) the issue at N7 Studios.
In a nutshell,
- Open Terminal
- Type in atsutil databases -removeUser
- Type in atsutil server -shutdown
- Type in atsutil server -ping
This worked for me. I just had to restart chrome before the fix worked. I hope google will come up with a solution to this though because it’s happening with many of their own fonts! Hope this helped.

It’s Tuesday. The sun is shining. I’m feeling inspired.

This is one of my favorite desktop wallpapers. And, yes, I do think I need one of these posters hanging above my desk. Or maybe the vinyl version. Oh wait, my “work table” is my desk. But usually I just end up working at the kitchen table, so I’ll need to find the perfect spot for it.

Maybe I should turn this into my Friday feature. But for now, it’s Wednesday, and here’s a new font to drool over. This seems like such a perfect, casual, handwriting font.

Myfonts.com chose their top 10 fonts of 2009. Here’s the ones I’m digging and wishing I could afford:
Calluna

I love, love, love the details. It’s classic but fun. Check out the awesome OO. So nice!
Ivory

Beautiful. Swashes. Heart. Makes me want to design a children’s fairy tale book.

No projects to use this font for at the moment, but one day…
