Wallpaper Evaluation

Wallpaper Project Pt.2 - Fonts

For this section I had to research different styles of fonts and download 2 different ones that I could use in my wallpaper.Once I had the basic idea of what I wanted to do (I will post the basic ideas I drew in my next post) I looked on http://www.1001freefonts.com/ for the fonts. This website has many sections - Gothic, Horror, Asian etc and each of those sectioons has different fonts within them.

Looking through the different sections I found there was many fonts I liked and thought there might be a chance I could use them. The following images are of my research on teh website, some of the fonts in the images do stand a good chance at being used in my wallpaper.

The image above shows a few examples of different fonts from the Gothic section. The first font show "A Charming Font" is my favourite font out of them all - including those from the other sections - and will most liely be used in my wallpaper.

The image above show example from two other sections - Horror and Greek/Roman.

I like the horror style fonts as it suits in with how my wallpaper will look - a gothic/horror theme. (Which I think is appropriate with it getting so close to Halloween :D )

I also find the Greek/Roman style fonts interesting too, particulalry seeing as how the fonts in the image are more in the style of the Norse so I think that is a mistake on the websites part. I have a strong interest in Norse mythology and history and find the font styles quite interesting.

Below in the final image is one last font from the Roman/Greek style called "YGGDRASIL" which when translated generally means Odins horse. In Norse mythology yggdrasil is The World Tree and is a central part in Norse mythology.

The final section of fonts comes from the section called Bitmap/Pixel. I thoguht fonts from this section would also be appropriate for the wallpaper because of their strong connection with media and games.
