I believe we were Helvetic most recently.
Now we're back to Arial.
Thoughts? |

I think you guys had Georgia font, at least for me. I don't know, I like Georgia but Arial is easier to read. I've been using that on my site for years, but then again no one goes on my site lol. Better change it back j/k :)

I liked Georgia for the nav buttons and titles. But I think Arial is more readable for the text of posts.

ariel might be readable but its natural text kerning is awkward unless you want to go in and fix every word manually. Makes everything look very amateur.

Man, Helvetica is the real deal. Ariel is Micro$oft's ripoff of Helvetica, because they were too cheap to license it. Haven't you seen the Helvetica documentary??? No really, there is a documentary -- pretty interesting.

That's good enough reason for me to try Helvetica. I always thought Arial was just narrower Helvetica... Then again I didn't watch that documentary =)

While I do believe Helvetica is still the g.o.a.t typeface I was happy to see that small shift back towards serif fonts. A classy serif title amongst a sea of sans serifs is a nice contrast sometimes.
One advantage to using Arial vs Helvetica is that most people have Arial installed on their machines, and most people (like Mike) wont care about the subtle differences between the two types.
Goddamit.... type matters mike
