Another Font Sighting

Sunday, August 15, 2004

So now that I’ve stopped pointing fingers at the LCBO, do I now need to hunt down the folks at The Food Network?

johnny, your phonts are the bomb. you shouldn’t feel so reluctant about wanting to be compensated for them.

look at van gogh. he never got paid for any of his fonts (ghonts in dutch) and he ended up cutting off an ear. you wanna lose an ear? go after these guys…

Heck, they could have at least offered you a free blender or hibachi for the font!

Hey guess what everyone, on the fonts page it says they are free only for non-commercial work!

Wow, I guess plain ole english doesn’t work anymore huh?

I’d send them a stern letter, and then ask for licensing fees. Or maybe just ask for some toys smile

I don’t know if that guy is going to cook me a organic salad with blackened tofu chunks or turn ME into a salad.

It kinda looks like they copied that ‘logo’ (with your really good font on it) as a Jpeg and just pasted it into flash.  Then added: 1 dash seziure sunrise, 1 cup crazy guy named antony, 2 links to breakthrough media (the font incorperators non-the-less).

YOU did the work for the font! without being selfish, being rewarded for your work is nothing more than reasonable. and a toy is REALLY reasonable… go for it!

I think it might have been the people (http://www.breakthroughfilms.com/) who made that particular web-site who used your font John, and call me a crazy cynic, but I doubt if they provide their services for nothing...so I feel it is only fair that they should recompense you too.
