Default Anyone got any good fonts ?

I'm kind of stuck in a rut with basic fonts. Anyone got any that look cool or abstract ? Or know of any sites ?

All of these are good suggestions but if you are really serious about your work, you will probably want to look into pay fonts. Although many people don't like the idea of paying for a font, it is much easier than running into legal issues down the road

Hope this helped!
