fonts

Important question - what's your preferred font to format a resume/cv in?

Also, I actually banned some twit from commenting on my youtube videos - she was posting crap like They were aweosme friends back in the day, but I don't know all that happened, but they forget their fans pay them and their producers who make their CDs, concerts, products, etc. It's so sad, even if they are handsome, it's almost as bad as if someone did really kill all of them and Kevin went quite about it for me(Been a 10 years, known them and their amatuter fansite overseer for 14 years(Kevin and Howie is who I met back on the first day, April 19th, 1993)).

...WTF???

Um. WHAT? I couldn't even READ that.

It's the combination of idiocy + incomprehensibility that really makes it special.

and that they would be PROUD of running a site with the use of grammar like that (or lack thereof) is equally special. :D

Garamond (any version) is always a winner for resumes, or anything, really. Easy to read, well designed, classical, and it's NOT Times New Roman! All big pluses. Or if you'd rather do a sans-serif, go for Myriad or Frutiger, NOT Arial. Arial is offensively ugly. If you need any of those, let me know!

YAY I love garamond! Everyone else is okay with times, but OH garamond has my heart! and soul! and everything else that matters!

I hate Times almost as much as I love Garamond--and that's A LOT. I have to make myself use other typefaces, sometimes. Garamond is just so pretty and so versatile. Mmmmmmm, type.

a standard serif, times new roman or garamond.


and OH teenies. gotta love the crazies.

I've used Garamond. The past few years I've been in love with Palatino Linotype. Both are pleasing to the eye, I believe.

...Do what? I just read that three times and it's still not making any sense. o.0

DUDE!! Oh my! That same person has been commenting on MY videos too! What a freak! And it's always something nonsensical... I looked at their profile and it says thay're 22... Would've made them 8, fourteen eyars ago. Wtf? O_o.

I'd wondered if other people had been graced by her special brand of insanity.

Though WHOA, that just makes it even crazier.

I just stick with Times New Roman or Arial for resumes. I've heard many times to just stick to the basics on those kind of things, so as much as I'd rather use a 'pretty' font, I do what I'm told :)

Garamond is fine for printing out. Just in case you need to send it to someone via attachment, keep it as Tms and Ariel because you can't guarantee they'll have the same fonts on their pc. Depends on how you're putting it into their hands. Some people ask for attachments, some people refuse to open attachments (quite sensibly).

I'm putting a vote in for Garamond.

Also, why are all the media sharers I know getting bombarded with all sorts of crazy now? I'm this close to banninating a couple of people from commenting in my fucking lj.

Times or Garamond, as people have already said. Stay away from Arial for anything except headers, it's the only thing it was designed for. Using it as a main font is some weird modern invention that would probably have its inventor(s) rotating in their graves if they knew about it!

Ahahahaha, YouTube comments and BSB fans.. There's a mini flamewar happening in the comment thread of one of my tiny video of Brian singing to Nick during the 2006 concert, with one person squeeing about the gay, and a whole string of angry people yelling "their not gay, your gay!" kind of thing in response. *sigh*

Sometimes I want to disable comments, but there are the occasional person who has a legitimate question or something.

Yikes!
