i am designing a poster to express this poem about a windmill. does anyone have any recommendations for fonts which suit the idea of windmills?
oh yeah, it might not be the font that expresses exactly what you want, but the way you use it. something as plain as helvetica could work if your idea is strong.
But please, please, don't use Helvomita. Even Comic Sans might be better, or at least less bad. hhp
:-> Yeah, the first one chunks. Chez, what about Ex Ponto? http://www.adobe.com/type/browser/P/P_385.jhtml BTW, have you considered opening a restaurant for French mathematicians? "Chez^2" (Sorry...) hhp
Windmills? How about something Edam-esque?
They're kinda related to windmills, they both blow . . .
let us read the poem. nice windmills, scary ones?
