I prefer Calibri after I switched to Microsoft Word 2007. I don't know, it just looks nicer and has more substance than most of the other fonts. D:

*takes dagger to the chest*

Damn. Yeah I'm a bit of a TNR fan, just because it streamlines the whole process. My lecturers prefer it for my essays and my Microsoft Word has it as it's default setting. Oh My God! I just realised I'm a slave to *The Man*.

For one of my stories write now I'm using Californian FB and I'm loving it. For one of my others I'm using Bell MT and I'm loving that too.
Fonts are important to me...I have to like what I'm looking at.

I just use Times New Roman when I typing stuff for school, because I'm forced to. But it really depends on the piece that I'm writing. If it's all dark and full of murder, I'll probably use Franklin Gothic Book. But yeah, I like Verdana. But I find that I like the Comic Book Font too. :D

I'm too lazy to switch my font.

In elementary school, we would collect everyone's writing at the end of the year and bind it together and give everyone a copy. I hated it when people put their writing in inane fonts and huge font sizes. It just made it harder to read.

It's hard for me to read anything off a computer screen. This year I had to spend 20+ after school hours just typing out papers for my tech teacher (who is a lazy loser) because I was the fastest typer in yearbook. Staring at the computer for two hours straight, typing out handwritten messages, basically killed my eyes. I actually have some weird eye condition where my eyes get tired of focusing. But idk if that even affects looking at computer screens.

Anywho, times new roman is like one of the easiest fonts to read. They actually did a study on it. I think that the one in newspapers is the actual easiest, but i dont know what it's called.

I use calibri on the new word =] I like it a lot. That and Georgia, although verdana is fine. TNR is okaaay but I wouldn't use it in my stuff.

I had a teacher one time who always used Comic Sans and it really annoyed me! It's such a patronising font ^_~

You're a bit crazy, you know that Jen? That's why we loves you :D

Your fond personalities cracked me up, rescuing me from boredom for a few minutes. Thank you for that because I was seriously getting bored out of my mind. Stupid schoolwork.

My favourite fond at the time is Verdana, though I use Browilla New on occasion when I feel like looking serious :P

Though I do switch between fonds every once a while; they get boring.

Times New Roman sucks. I like Arial. It's simple and it works, without being ugly.

Ahhhh, dear Lucida Grande. And it's Verdana. Not Veranda or whatever. Do you think fonts don't have feelings? Do you think they don't care when you claim they are your true love and then just carelessly toss their proper spelling to the breeze.

You horrible, horrible person.

I use TNR now, but started getting sick of it a while ago and began experimenting with fonts. I've gone back to TNR now, though.

Though I (used to) do the bulk of my writing in WordPad, so I used Arial.

Basically, I'm boring and only use the default fonts.
Ah, it is an empty movement. That is an empty movement. It is.

I like making my fonts really small. Anything above a size 10 really bugs me...

*Stabs TNR fans.*
That's nice, Jen. :P

It doesn't really matter what font I type it. Sometimes I'll go crazy and be like "Well, this one looks better." and then I switch fonts but I otherwise don't mess with it. Like Bitter, my laptop has no interesting fonts on it (It doesn't even have Word! That's one good reason for having to use the family computer for the Internet--there's Word and different fonts), so I can't normally do much anyway.

TNR doesn't bother me but it will on rare occasion. *Hides in courner so Jen can't find her* xD.
