What you find when you're not really looking

Looking for something totally not font related, I find this gem of a font from the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources. They couldn't find a font to do what they wanted, so some font geek in the MN DNR built one.

And something that will definitely prove useful, a font of Euro symbols. Just Euro symbols, in quite a few different font designs, for all those old fonts built before Euros.

And a couple of very short dingbat fonts. Just for fun.

Request for fonts

I've had some requests for fonts that I'd like to pass on to you.I find what I find, so if you know of some others, let me know. I try adding fonts you can actually download, whether free/share/purchaseware. Including Garrison Kayo, used for Bruce Almighty, which started life as Gill Sans Ultra Bold.

Requests include:
New York Yankees
New York Mets
Font used by White Lion, which is a great font!
Buffalo Bills: I've got a font that looks similar, but the numbers don't match the jersey numbers.

Any suggestions would be welcome

I've got the "match the stupid looking word" thing to verify you're real. Forgive me, but it keeps me from getting viagra spam thru the blogger email.

A few more fonts for St. Patricks' Day; And a few from Chank Diesel

It's easier to add fonts using Blogger, so I am. The pages that were missing from last week should now be online. A few extras for St. Patrick's Day, and adding more Chank Diesel fonts. Don't get used to it. The clients that throw money at me come first. www.danieldesigns.com Website Design end Blatant Plug

More famous fonts; new category - music

I've added some more Famous fonts, since I've gotten more email in the past few weeks I've had famous fonts on Fontage than I have in the past few years. Don't argue with success.

I've also added a new category, Music fonts. These are fonts with instruments, music notes or symbols, and stuff relating to music in general. There are several music fonts by Manfred Klein. I knew his fonts were available all over the net, but until just recently, didn't know what the terms of distribution were. They are now listed with the fonts, and on his foundry page.

There are also a few odds and ends just to round things out.
