FUBU has nothing on us

New from FontShop - For Designers By Designers. f Stop provides royalty free pictures taken by designers. Good or Bad? Only time will tell. I think we should start a poll on how many times photos by David Carson will be used, maybe better, where they will be misused.

I can’t wait for photographers to start selling their own fonts.

I see the site was designed by Jared Bensonís and Joe Pembertonís Punchcut. They are also the brains and braun behind typophile.com.

I really want to look through the collection, but the site is painfully slow -- and I'm on DSL! besides that, I'm getting stray scroll bars all over the place on IE 5.1. maybe there are just too many eager designers like me trying to access the server... I really hope that's the case.

Actually, this photographer tends to give away his fonts. It's only fair you know, I'm only an amateur at the type thing. ;)

When I looked at the site, it surely was butt-ugly, not that i think butts are ugly or anything. It's just a manner of speaking. Anyway: redo/remake/remodel.

Yes, there's really no reason the site needs frames or iframes like that....

I like the concept, though, and might try it myself, for kicks....there are never any good cactus photos :)

Cactus is art! See our pal Jeff Soto, the ultimate cactus lover.

As much as I like Punchcut.. why am I getting horizontal AND vertical scrollbars on a 100x100 iframe in the center of my browser?
