font advice
hi there
i'm a first time poster. basically, just out of interest i was just wanting to know what body fonts you guys like to use. i use fruitiger, futura and helvetica lots (i use alot of sans serif fonts) and i'm getting a bit bored of those. can you guys tell me your favourite body fonts (preferably sans serif).
cheers

I never tire of talking about fonts. I like Franklin Gothic too, it's one of my usuals.
