Richard McCarthy Posted December 24, 2003 Share Posted December 24, 2003 I think it's Monodoge by Craig Kroeger. http://www.miniml.com , scroll down to 030101 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mzagorski Posted December 24, 2003 Author Share Posted December 24, 2003 Oh, thanks! Well done. Damn.. $100 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard McCarthy Posted December 24, 2003 Share Posted December 24, 2003 Yeh, fonts are expensive....VERY expensive... But those pixel fonts.. there are a lot of free one and they are ALMOST all identical. There used to be a japanese site call BitmapMania, that has almost all the pixel fonts you can imagine and for free (made by author himself, and donated for public)... problem the site is now gone now... I think it might be bandwidth overuse.. (sigh) I can still give you that font if you want... just message me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard McCarthy Posted December 24, 2003 Share Posted December 24, 2003 Sorry, my mistake, I didn't research enough hehe... Because of your question, it prompted me to search for them (BitmapMania) and now I found it again. Looks like they moved from a ISP homeuser page to a professional hoster now.... without much ado.. http://bitmapmania.m78.com Click the top bar 3rd icon from the right of cute robot to access the font collection, the font is 02/BM BUG. Also, check 19/BM Plain , I think it's a similar font, but in my opinion it's a nicer/superior font because of the weight distribution, and hinting.

mzagorski Posted December 24, 2003 Author Share Posted December 24, 2003 Thanks. Japanese too.. must get my wife to help translate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard McCarthy Posted December 24, 2003 Share Posted December 24, 2003 Hehe, it's Japanese site, but the fonts are all English alphabet I can assure you that. Just click the top bar where that cute robot is... 3rd icon from the right is your font icon. (if you use MAC you will recognise it's a mac font/suitcase icon).. after that, click the drop down list (Select Font) and scroll the the font I mention before, then click "Win TT" for Windows TrueType font.

mzagorski Posted December 24, 2003 Author Share Posted December 24, 2003 Yup, got it.. I meant translate the rest of the site. I downloaded the font.. but its a little heavy for my liking and their K isn't too pretty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbr Posted December 24, 2003 Share Posted December 24, 2003 The miniml fonts are actually pretty cheap. The $100 buys you access to ALL of the fonts, where some places charge that much for one. He's got some nice free ones, too. Also check out: http://www.fontsforflash.com they have some nice ones (I used them at www.aestheticmaneuvers.com and www.briadayspa.com ) and they are pretty cheap. Cheers. Merry Christmas!! Now time to go be jolly and make another hangover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
