Ok quick question for you folks: For the type on the cards should we all use the same one for the sake of consistancy? I feel like since everyone has a different style that they will link together properly if we all use the same typeface. Anyone have any ideas as to one that will work?xD

I haven't wanted to put that restriction up due to the fact that I feel like I should NOT have the authority on any creative decisions lol. If anybody wanted to create a list of possible fonts/run it by the other artists (especially those already working on their cards) I could set up a poll and we could all vote on what we think would work the best. |

I reckon it sounds like a good idea to have the type be consistent between all of the cards, it'd help tie them together as a deck even with differing styles of the illustrations. Personally I'd go for a plainer font so that it doesn't attract attention from the art, but that might just be personal preference talking. I like the idea of creating a pool of fonts to looks at and seeing which one people like the best. The font that I've been using is called "BigNoodleTitling", if anyone wants to have a look at it.

I agree with making a list and doing a vote on a typeface.:3 I'll look into it but I will keep in mind that the fonts I will pick are on both systems (PC and Mac) so we don't have to worry about downloads and whatnot. |

I agree with a plainer typeface since the idea of the project is about the illustrations. Is the typeface from online or on your system? Wanna take a look at it.:3 |

Haha yeah I found it for some school work and then basically fell in love with it. Yeah, we'd have to make sure that whatever font we decide to use looks good with all the designs, and then also doesn't go blurry or what have you when it prints. And because there's gonna be money involved to print them we'll also have to check to make sure if we need permission to use the font. If memory serves, when downloading them they tend to come with a txt file that has information about that. |

Oooooo its rather nice actually.xD Course we need to keep in mind that if these make it to print that it should be a typeface that is good for that but I am thinking way to far ahead here.xD;; But I say I would add that to the list.

Always good to know these things ahead of time instead of later.xD Best keep that in mind too when putting up fonts for the vote folks! |

I made an announcement thread for this discussion (titled Card Font Discussion/Vote) so that hopefully more people will see it! Any future discussion of the font can take place there  |
