& Logos
At this site, you'll find a solid, alphabetized roundup of several hundred fonts. Not all of the fonts here are free (some are shareware, but they're clearly marked as such). (There's a nifty free instant logo generator here that lets you create custom images, using any font).

This nifty freeware utility makes it easy to work with fonts on your computer. FontLoader offers a shell context menu extension that lets you load and install fonts by right-clicking on a font file or a folder containing fonts. Note: FontLoader does not support PostScript fonts, it works with TrueType fonts only. 480 kilobytes. (For Windows 98/95 and NT).

Freak

You can preview each selection and, if you like it, download a ZIP compressed version. There's also a good selection of free dingbats.

By Zero
A welcome addition to the Web's free font resources, Divide By Zero serves up a eye-catching collection of original TrueType fonts. They're free to use, but may not be resold (as part of a collection on CD, for example). Webmaster Tom Murphy doesn't beat around the bush on this site; he gets straight to the fonts on the main page. Each font is annotated with interesting commentary about its creation and suggestions for use. For those in a hurry, you can get all the fonts in a convenient ZIP file.
- Windows
95 Font Smoother
Great, free utility that previously was available only with the commercial Microsoft Plus! package. This program makes text easier to read and more pleasant to look at. Note: This utility will only work on machines capable of, and set to, 16bit (HiColor) color display modes or higher.
- Font
Mania
This is one classy free font site. I almost expected there to be valet parking here! Font Mania offers over 400 free Windows TrueType fonts, conveniently organized. There's a "Top 10" listing and an archive of past favorites. A nice collection, with many fonts that we've not seen elsewhere. This site offers a message board for you to place requests on. There's also helpful tips and tricks on using fonts.
- FontLister
If you have a lot of fonts on your computer, then you need this free essential utility. FontLister allows you to quickly view, browse, print, and work with your fonts. FontLister's latest version is shareware, but you can still get Version 2, which is still freeware.
