Typography posters are coming!!

My typography poster posts are all drafted and ready to go!
I must preface their posting by saying:

I love dafont.com. I am not affiliated with them, but I've been visiting the website for as long as I can remember.
I enjoy it's ease of use, the interface, the simplicity and unsketchyness of its download buttons, basically everything about it.

Since learning from peers and teachers about other sites that are equally as sketch-free I have branched out, but you will notice the majority of my fonts come from dafont.com.

Some of them are also available on other sites, I just prefer dafont.

Beside each font is its usage rights and a link to its location.

These usage rights range:
Personal use- don't use it if it's going to make you money.
Commercial use- you can use it to make money.
100% free- you can use it to make money.
Public domain- you probably shouldn't make money, but you can use, bundle, modify, and distribute.

[I just found this draft] --> It's almost Summer 2014

********************************************

Holy Moses.

I didn't post at all this school year.

I did not plan that.

My first year at Frostburg has been crazy amazing.

I'm about to move out and I still catch myself thinking holy cow "I'm actually HERE!"

It still blows my mind on a regular basis.

I have read not one book for fun since I moved here.

I racked up $50 in library fees, I was so sure I'd be able to read and post and do school work.

I was overly ambitious.

But as soon as I finish the last of my school work I'll be back at this.

Reviewing, updating lists. READING!

I've missed it so much, but I've had to ignore it.

I've also taken up watching wayyyyyy to much tv.

*******************************************

^^^^^ I wrote this in the spring, and never posted it.
It does explain some of my absence.
I hope that maybe I can turn over a new leaf with Christmas break coming up quickly.
The end of the semester is rough, but with only four more weeks to go, I have confidence I can contribute to this blog more.
I have half a dozen drafts started, I'll be rereading those books and starting there.
I will also probably be adding in a little bit more about my hobbies, and school work.
I recently opened an Etsy shop and think that posting about it could help my traffic.
We shall see.

Random Graphic Design Post. AWK.

So it's been well over a year since I posted.
And embarrassingly.... well over a year since I picked up a book.

College. Is. Insane.

As an art student, I have no free time.
I work, and go to class, and do homework.
I don't even have time to think about missing books.

I think I mentioned earlier, I am a Graphic Design student.
Since I came to school, I also added a Ceramics focus which takes up even more of my time.

For my advanced graphics class I produced a series of 6 aggregated typography posters.
My classmates loved them, and as a part of another project, and at my classmates' urgent requests I need to post them to the internets!!

Instead of starting a whole new blog for crafting, I thought I would just use the platform I already have, to get my future pins out into the Pinterest world.

Following this post will be six separate posts that each have a infographic full of fonts and a explanation of each, including usage rights and where you can find each font.
