Designing with Comic Sans

| No Comments | No TrackBacks

Comic Sans is a font that has traditionally come shipped with computers using Microsoft operating systems. Since there were only a few fonts shipped with Microsoft operating systems (Arial and Times New Roman included), Comic Sans became a popular font used in design. It is over-used, and it's just ugly. The font does not have authority; it cannot be taken seriously. It looks 'comical' and annoying like a group of clowns trying to be funny. Now there's a website dedicated to this font, rather dedicated to banning this font from existence. While I do not like Comic Sans, wouldn't people just find another font to use everywhere and inappropriately too? To read more about Comic Sans, its inappropriate use, or to support banning the font, go to http://www.bancomicsans.com. Oh, and we should ban screenbeans too.
