Post up your commonly used fonts here. Either for numbers, names, or whatever else you may use the fonts for. Yzed, I know you've got a few good fonts. :wink:
DaFont.com is a great holdout for hundreds of different fonts.

For numbers, I find myself using "Impact" at 50% of it's original height. Impact is a standard installed font. Impact is also good for experimenting; such as chamfering the corners.

Dafont has just about everything you need. I use the font "Disparador" and "Disparador Stencil" frequently.

I'll post some links when I get home, I can't remember any names right now. I think I got all of them from dafont though (the font preview with whatever text you want works really good).

Using it for the numbers, skew them so you get them to lean :)

Thank you for sharing im glad you brought this up. I use Haettenschweiler adding a horizontal stretch which was recommended by KTM57. It looks killer for bikes but this wont be found on dafont you will just have to search the name.

Just double click them and Windows will ask you to install them, then they'll just show up in Gimp.

I've been using Disparador for One Industries jersey lettering. Sometimes I use Gunplay for other stuff.

You can get pretty close the Villo's #2 by skewing and flatttening the Impact font.
