Hi,

I am in the process of designing my sites front page, and have been looking around at other sites to kind of get a feel for what works, and what doesnt work. Basic look and feel so to speak.

Anyways, I have noticed most places with decent traffic have a very stylized front end to their sites. These are usually image maps, and have very individual and stylistic fonts used within the pictures of the main table. I know these are not standard fonts, and need to know if these are drawn in using graphics software , freehand, special font applications or what?

I can hold my own cropping and editing photos with the best of them. but have never attempted such a stylized or themed text before. How are you all getting these great fonts?
