Your favourite font for webdesign

I quite like Verdana for the body and Helvetica for the titles...

Verdana seems to have a nice amount of space between the characters - ideal for reading on a screen...

And Helvertica is the all-round general usage powerhouse font

Honest to God, who would have thought a font could be so interesting!

 

I used to use Verdana, but now I just use Arial.

 

I used to be a Verdana person too
Now I lean towards Calibri for reports, very clean font in a PDF

 

I mostly use Arial, but I'm starting to like Trebuchet MS and Georgia

 

I like Century Gothic, I think it looks real good
I used to like Verdana, and still do, just prefer CG

 

11 - 12px Verdana <3

 

Tahoma for the main text Franklin Gothic for the titles.

 

Normally?

12px Verdana or 12px Arial.

I have used Tahoma before, also.

 

Myriad, and if the user doesn't have it Verdana... Either 10px or 12px depending on the design.

 

I only really use Helvetica Nueue TT 12px for all my websites. Used to use arial before but started to like Helvetica and I won't use anything else now because I think it looks much nicer.

 

Verdana and Trebuchet Ms, I love Sans-serif fonts as they look clear and neat. But some of Sans fonts are great too.

 

I dont think i have ever used anything but Verdana
If it works why change it??

 

Verdana is a font designed for web browsing. I think it's meant to be the most readable font on a computer screen.

 

Arial or Times titles, depending on the website's style.
Verdana for body all the way. Arial is a too too condensed at 12px.

 

Arial or Verdana.

 

Cooper black for some of my titles : )
Zapfino for flair... like cooking, fairies, flowers, funerals...
Gotham for cleanliness... feels like an engineer.

Of course, I can never use the fonts I love, esp when they are not free (century gothic I look at you).
So I do verdana, helvetica, arial, sans-serif; most of the time
however watch out
Verdana is larger at the same font-size than Arial or Helvetica! So there will be a rather noticable difference between machines!

When doing serif, I love georgia, which also has a larger size per font-size than Times New Roman (though not so huge as the difference between Verdana and Arial).

georgie, baskerville, "times new roman", serif;

Sometimes when I need a goofier font I add some UNIX ones in too, so I can see what I'm building : )

 

It's not a standard font is it? It cant be guaranteed to be installed on a web users machine, therefore I don't use it for main text.

I use Tahoma or Verdana for most text, and use Gerogia for headings sometimes.

 

Myriad Pro is my personal favorite

 

Arial 11px is my favourite font and size.

Georgia looks great on Apple Macs, but not so great on PC's.

With fonts like Trebuchet and Verdana, I go through phases of liking them, but I always fall back on Arial.
