    Hi all

    I'm looking for some free fonts, basically I need really tabloid fonts like:

    "TOP CHEF ADMITS KINKY SEX ORGY"

    Like you see in the papers.

    Any ideas?


    Thanks?

    Barney

    You could try having a trawl through dafont.com but the search function is not working at the moment so it can be very difficult to find what you want. Worth a shot though.

    What about a free program to manage your fonts, using Word to view them as they appear is a pain, then you have to go to your windows folder to delete them zzzzzz

    Anyone know of a simple freeware font manager that does the trick?


    Thanks

    If you double click on any font file (.ttf etc) windows will automatically open up a preview showing all the characters in the font in various sizes and styles
