300 free truetype fonts --for Windows and OSX (a mixed bag, and not great for printing, but good for online and playing around)

And no pop-ups, like most of the other free font sites. Thanks!

Very nice!
So, is there a firefox extension that can download all of them automatically?

Hey, a lot of the good old classics are there too: bodoni, baskerville, garamond...this is cool.

don't use them for any important printed stuff tho--they probably won't print well. (but a cd swap cover is ok) : >

Thanks, I have a Goudy-designed tattoo, but I've had no Goudy font for a while. Now I do.

Hey, they have Bookman Old Style, my fave, but with the original Monotype Corporation copyright on it... OH NO! We're illegally sharing fonts!!! Good thing there isn't an FIAA, right?
