Giant Font
==========
by Cesar Salazar

'GiantFont' Regular (AKA "Giant") is an all-caps (uppercase & lowercase keys are supported) sans style display font that is a variation on the outline style display font.


LICENSE
-------
This is a 100% Free font and as such can be used for commercial uses. I would check with the authoring designer before using it as a web font, but usually a "100% Free" font includes that, especially since it was released to the public in 2020 with no such web use restriction. His contact info is given below.


NOTE FROM THE AUTHORING DESIGNER
--------------------------------
"Someday I hope to see this font on the streets. Excellent for headlines, also readable for sentences."

Font Editor Software:
*********************

FontStruct:
===========
Ever want to create your own font?
Try Fontstruct at https://w3n.us/fs
It’s free, easy and it’s fun.
Fontstruct © 2018 Rob Meek.

FontStruct is a free online font building tool that I have used to make a few of my own fonts. Fontstruct is a free font editor available at which was the tool chosen to make this font - it’s fun, free, and easy to learn and use. You can even make your own version of this font with it, and there is a great little community of designers there that share with each other, though if you want, you may well keep to yourself and still use the font editor.

https://w3n.us/fs


calligraphr:
============
calligraphr allows you to scan your own hand lettered fonts in small character numbers for free, or with a large character sets with a subscription model.

You simply select the glyphs you want to include, then download a template, fill it in by lettering the characters using your own design, then scan it back into the PC/Mac/Linux/etc... and the online tool will create a font from your lettered template.

https://w3n.us/calligraphr


FontForge:
==========
Another free font editor is a Linux based professional editor with support for most every modern font standard. Though it has been ported to other platforms, I have never been able to get it to run on Windows. It apparently runs great on Linux, Mac & Sun, and they are always working on the Windows version (I haven't tried to install it on Windows 10 and probably never will. I just installed Linux & FontForge on an old laptop and expect to be using it pretty heavily.

https://w3n.us/ff


Fontlab Typography Suites:
==========================
If you would like to get yourself a decent font editor to create your own font(s) on your PC or Mac, I recommend Fontographer, although TypeTool might do the job, too. FontLab is the flagship typographic tool of the Fontlab company. However, do note that I do use Fontstruct online.

Glyphs:
=======
A Mac-only version of professional typography editors is Glyphs, which is also supported by FontStruct (allowing you to wireframe a design in FontStruct, export it, and then add the bezier curves you want in Glyphs).

https://w3n.us/glyphs


FontSelf:
=========
Finally, an extremely reasonable priced font editor is a plug-in for either of the subscription models of Illustrator or Photoshop (Creative Cloud versions, only) is called FontSelf that is in use creating many modern profesional fonts today.

https://w3n.us/fontself


Getting Started:
================
There are a lot of online resources to help you get started creating fonts such as typography guides & learning type design...

If you need help making sure your font name isn't already reserved as a font name by someone else (all font family names should be unique), a good start is:
https://w3n.us/fontname

-That should be enough to get you started right. ;)


Submit Your Font:
=================
Be sure to submit any font you might create or legally modify that we could use here. Any font that has a complete letterset (A-Z, a-z, 0-9 &+~!@#$%^&*()_=-`"':;<>?/|\[{}],.) that is freely distributable would be greatly apprectiated, especially if it is OK for commercial use. We also love fonts that can be used as web fonts. Be sure to use a unicode letterset when you save your work or the font simply won't display right here at Font-Journal. It's our most important requirement.


About Font-Journal:
-------------------
Font-Journal is a cataloged archive of freeware and shareware fonts that I maintain for my small business, start-up and freelancing clients. I try to collect PC truetype freeware fonts that can be used for commercial purposes, and shareware fonts that can be used for commercial purposes upon registration and/or payment of the shareware fee. I also try to collect freely distributable web fonts of the same variety. The end result is a pretty decent font repository, although I can only work on it in my spare time, which I have little of.

Submit to Google Fonts:
=======================
You can also submit your own font to Google Fonts. You can either use FontStruct to submit your finished SIL Open Font Licensed font which fulfills the required Google's required 215 basic glyphs (Google Font submission info is available on FontStruct), or you can submit it yourself. More info is available here, on how to submit your font to Google Fonts on GitHub:

https://w3n.us/addfont
(-I will update this Short Link at W3N.US if/when I find a better page on GitHub.com for this info.)


Font Cloud:
===========
Font Cloud is a great place to store your fonts online so that if you need them, you can get them wherever you are as long as you have internet web access. This is a big deal with designers, publishers, printers, or absolutely anyone who relies on a custom font for a logo, letterhead, headline, content, documents, website UI, and all those appropriate webfonts. If you are designing fonts yourself, this may well be a necessity for you, so you can always access your projects. You will get considerable free space just for signing up with Font Cloud, and there are all sorts of options to expand your storage limits.

https://w3n.us/fontcloud


Collecting Quality Fonts:
=========================
If you are interested in grabbing commercial fonts for your own work, I am often showcasing commercial fonts that are free for a limited time, and quality freeware fonts that are OK for commercial use, at one of my fonts groups on Google+ or Facebook:

https://w3n.us/f0nts Fonts community at Google+ Communities.

And I have a blog where I often announce my latest font creations or showcase the fonts I like:

https://w3n.us/fm FontMaster blog on Google's Blogger.


About Me:
---------
I started out as an motorcycle racer and mechanic. That didn't work out and I never got in a race car as planned. I wound-up as an illustrator, animator, doing some programming and tech support. Plus I have always been amatuer artist, photographer and videographer. I was designing logos, posters and graphics in college with Illustrator and Photoshop, and wound-up making a website portfolio just afterwards. A few people liked it and I wound-up as a freelance web design studio. Then I expanded into web hosting, then domain name registrations and servers, offering a complete set of webmaster tools as Domain Hostmaster. I then added the Domainance store in an effort to keep .name registrations and transfers available when our vendor dropped it. HD Web Hosting offers great domain hosting, cloud hosting and web server solutions with a free domain name for each paid hosting account, and a free Let's Encrypt SSL certificate for each and every domain in your account. Site Domains has been added to the list ensuring that I offer the best deals on domains between all the major registrars.

https://www.Domainance.com Short Link: https://x.co/domainance
https://HDWebHosting.com Short Link: https://w3n.us/webhost
https://SiteDomains.com Short Link: https://w3n.us/domains

Nowadays, I am just trying to corner a peice of the domain name registration and website hosting space, offering more for less than most with better customer/technical support. Professional domainers, designers, developers, optimizers and webmasters do like how I keep prices as low as possible and that I add my expertise and value where I can. In my spare time I have other projects, such as designing my own fonts.

I do love to help where I can, so if you feel like reaching out to me, contact me via:

Free Informational Websites:
----------------------------
I like to create free informational & resource websites.
Font-Journal is just one of these sites.

I also have others that are small websites and blogs which have specific little bits of info that are related to domains, cloud hosting, web design, website promotion, social media and online marketing. I try to keep these sites up-to-date, as well:

https://Valuate.Info Intellectual property & digital asset valuations.
https://DomainPerfection.com My domain name industry blog (complete w/ the odd rant).
https://Domainers.Name My premium domain name portfolio & info.
https://PremiumBrand.Name Premium brand names showcase website.
http://StandardLogo.com 3D logo and website header image creation.
https://Glossaryindex.com Simple dictionary word (& soon tech term) lookup tool.
https://HTMLCharacterCode.com HTML character code reference lookup table.
https://MetaTagSEO.com Meta Tag SEO: Optimizing meta tags for better search recognition.
https://RobotsFile.com Using the rrobots.txt file to optimize SE web crawler effeciency.
https://phpinfoFile.com Find your webhost config without waiting for tech support.
https://www.Faviconvert.com Add your logo/photo as your website favorites icon (a 'favicon').

I am also currently working on a rather large and very cool website that will eventually unveil at:

https://w3n.us/w


'Mobile-First' Responsive Website Design:
-----------------------------------------
If you are interested in getting a website designed for yourself or your business, I still do that at Salamader Design. Stop by and check me out there. I have a growing portfolio of sites I need to add there...

https://Salamander.US Short Link: http://x.co/SDesign


Intellectual Properties:
------------------------
I also design logos and complete brand identity packages, as well as consult and educate people on business branding, including how to conceive, create, design, develop, manage, and protect their own intellectual properties and brand names. This is my primary interest and the whole reason I took control of my own names and brands when others failed me (miserably).

To further promote my business websites, I established a T-shirts & gear products sales page at:

https://w3n.us/logo

That site also has a few slogan and cartoon style Tees, as well as gear that is available for purchase. The store also acts as a showcase for some of my own logos and brands.


Stock Photography:
------------------
Additionally, I try my hand at stock photography every so often. I especially like to take photos of wildlife, but it is hard to always get a good shot with wild critters like deer, turkey, pheasant, etc. But I try to get a few good shots now and again and submit them.

https://w3n.us/profile My DreamsTime stock photography profile.
https://w3n.us/stockphotos Dreamstime stock photography website.
https://w3n.us/freephotos Free stock photography on DreamsTime.
https://w3n.us/sellimages Sell your own images & photos on DreamsTime.

However, I do not recommend setting up any new profiles on any social media/networking site as it is clear that US corporations are spying on our interests, compiling our personal data, raiding our lives, betraying our privacy and using artificial intelligence to conduct espionage on each individual in order to monetize their digital lives, all under the noses of a do-nothing government. This is a sorry state of affairs in early 2018. -'Nuff sed.

Thanks for reading... remember to VOTE.
