HS.fi uudistui: hieno on

En juuri lue Hesaria verkosta, joten ulkoasu-uudistus jäi huomaamatta. Onneksi MS noteerasi sen. Uusi ilme on mukava, joskin hämmästyttävän New York Timesin näköinen. Vanha oli hirvittävä.

Kummallinen, tuo tyhjä aukko HS.fi-logon ja asiakaspalvelulaatikon välillä.

Ja MS, viittasinpa hyvinkin Herkon Westwood Deadwood-merkintään. Odotan innolla sarjan alkamista tänään.

Freight is one versatile font

Well, Christmas already went, but my birthday’s coming up. How about giving me the Freight family? It’s beautiful, has 100 fonts, and it costs only $895! Designed by Joshua Darden, Freight was one of Typographica’s favorite fonts of 2005.
