Hey guys, this is a survey to see what types of fonts you use when browsing the internet and for other daily PC activities.

AIM- I use Tahoma Size 8 because it is easy to read, and a bit smaller than the regular size 10 of AIM fonts... A popular font here at GTPlanet :)

Sending Emails- For email I usually stick with Arial Size 10 just because it's the norm in the everyday email world. The most professional and widely recognized font.

Chat (possibly for AOL members only)- This might just be an AOL thing, because AIM Chat would be your AIM font ;)... But anyways, in an AOL chat room, you have to use size 10 font, so I usually stick with Tahoma or sometimes use Verdana.

Typing Reports- Definitely Times New Roman Size 12, but that's just because my teachers want it that way. Plus it looks good on a report ;).
 
i pretty much use Arial about everywhere, or Times New Roman/Comic Sans MS sometimes...
 
In writing:
For Headlines I use Verdana, which is a good, clear sans-serif face that has the added virtue of being not-Arial (too much Arial in the world!)
For paragraphs I use Garamond, which is an attractive serif face that has the added virtue of being not-Times (New) Roman.

This works for most things for me. I think I use Verdana 8 on MSN Messenger.
 
Hey GG, I just saw that you're from Edinburgh! Beautiful City :). I got to visit in Mid-July for 4 days. Had a blast. Princes Street was awesome, and the view of the 'old city' was spectacular.
 
I have lots of downloaded fots that i use.

I actually did a paper for my computer class in the 'diabo' font, from the game:D

Good thing i stapled a copy of it in 'system' on the back:D

But i use system for almost everything.
 
I'm the same as Ferrari 308 on everything (except size 10 font for AIM0, but another note: I use Imprint MT Shadow for a lot of my homework-- it's a fancy font, but yet is still easy to read. :)
 
I use whatever I can in order to have it still be subtle, but definitely noticeable. My colleagues hate me.
