Choosing fonts


 have been using photoshop for all of a few days now and the biggest problem I come up with is choosing the right font to use in sigs etc. Was just wondering do any of you have any tips about it?

alot of the time.. just use a pixel font such as "Visitor TT2 BRK" and make it like size 10 - 14. usually make it white and place it in the corner!

Re: Choosing fonts


That doesnt always work though. Example: pretty much any sig where you want a quote or something. Oh and i suck at picking text color too emoticon

Re: Choosing fonts


Well I'm happy with my progress thus far. My plan for the sig I have now may be some style of gohticy writing with a latin phrase. Doesnt really matter what it says because no one will understand but I'll find something good.
