WHAT ? Serif fonts are evil !Bystander said:The serif looked really nice.
OH NO! Please don't do that. Stick with something sans serif. I love it the way it is now.Greg Bernhardt said:yup :)
For interface/nav I still really like PT Sans which is what everything is (maybe try Tahoma), but for post content I'm playing with Georgia.
A serif font is a type of font that has small lines or strokes at the end of each character. These lines are known as serifs and they are used to add a decorative touch to the font. Examples of serif fonts include Times New Roman, Georgia, and Baskerville.
Serif fonts have the small lines or strokes at the end of each character, while sans-serif fonts do not have these lines. Sans-serif fonts are often considered more modern and clean, while serif fonts are seen as more traditional and elegant.
Some people prefer serif fonts because they are easier to read in large blocks of text. The serifs help guide the reader's eyes from one character to the next, making it easier to follow the text. Serif fonts are also associated with a more formal and traditional aesthetic.
Yes, serif fonts can be used for a variety of designs, from traditional print materials to modern websites. However, some designers may choose to use sans-serif fonts for more modern or minimalist designs.
When choosing a serif font, consider the tone and purpose of your project. A more traditional or formal project may call for a classic serif font, while a more modern or casual project may benefit from a more contemporary serif font. It's also important to consider readability and choose a font that is legible in the size and format it will be displayed in.
