Hi, I am looking for a fat script font.
Specifically somewhat like the these two.
I have lots and lots of fonts but nothing like this.
The Pamela I am finding is different with a white outline.
(This a screenshot from a list - I don't have the font.)
I have no idea what the other one is called.

I have been looking around and not finding anything close.
Downloading lots of stuff -- which can't be good for my system.
I do keep a lot of them in a folder.

Thanks if anyone can steer me right.

Have you tried 1oo1 fonts?

Hi Marie,

Here are some samples of script fonts - There are a few thick, fat ones included (I like Scarlet Ribbons):

Thank you Diana,
I forgot about this.
I lost all my favorites when I updated the computer.

Hi Diana, thanks for the reply.
Your lists are the greatest. That's where I got the "Pamela" from.
I have been cruising your font links too.
I think my mistake was that I was stuck on "script".
I found some interesting fonts under "retro".
I have just a whole mess of fonts needing to be unzipped and categorized.
Thanks, again. Your links pages are so invaluable.

Hi Deborah, thanks for your tip.
Found something I think will work at 1001 fonts under "retro" of all things.
Now to get to work on all my downloads.
Dafont com had a little guy show up.
Said "Enough already! Take our survey!"
Checked my installed fonts today. I have "800" installed.
Lots more outside of Windows.
Lots more downloaded.
Helppppppppppppppppppp!
Thanks for your post.

You could try www.identifont.com

This site helps identify fonts based on a series of descriptive questions.

Thanks Karin, I had never used that site before.
That should help me when I go looking again.
Don't know what fonts I could possibly be missing. I have OOddles of them in a folder.

I found something close or even exactly like what I was looking for.

The people on this forum are the best.
Thanks everybody.

Oh btw it is called "Fancy Pants" on 1001 fonts.
Works well for what I wanted.
Putting flowers into it.

Thanks Deborah and Michelle for your replies.

Michelle thanks for the link.

It's amazing what you can accomplish on the computer ---
Once you get past the idea - that's not possible - or I don't know how to do this.

You know -- those old tapes keep on playing in your head.

And I will have to purge some of my installed fonts and organize the folder(S) better.

I do like this forum!!!!!!!!!!!

Has anyone used www.photoshopsupport.com (http://www.photoshopsupport.com) to load fonts. I just want to know if it is safe or not. Thanks.
