Do You Have the Addled Font?
What’s that funky, grumpy font style in the header above? Cool, hu? It’s called “Addled” and it’s a free TrueType font available at most free font library sites. I think it comes with certain software – maybe even Adobe Fireworks, which is what I used to design my theme. Below is an example of what it looks like.
The headings on Grump’s Place are also using this font, but you will only see the Addled font if you already have it installed on your computer. Instead, you may see either Arial Black, Franklin Gothic Heavy or the obligatory sans-serif font families, depending what you have installed.
I hope you will like the Addled font well enough to want to install it. You can download it from a number of sites, but here are two that I have direct links to: fontonic and fonts101.com
There’s not a lot the average website can do to offer its readers a more interesting font style. We’re pretty much stuck with whatever the viewer has on their computer. But even for the casual computer user, it’s fun to add a little personality to their email and snail mail letters. So, I recommend the Addled font – not just so you can see Grump’s Place in all its glory, but to give you something to play with in other applications.
