Google Drive for Homework

Class Google Drive Folder
This is where you'll upload your homework. I will create the folders for projects and exercises and anything else like reading or viewing responses. Please create a folder for yourself with the following format: LASTNAME_FIRSTNAME just so that I can see who has uploaded once at a glance before or during class.

Typography-related Resources

Below you'll find places to download fonts for your projects, be they websites, print, or animation.

  • Personal Collection ↗ Here you'll find fonts I've purchased that I'm giving you access to with "the honor system" that is to say, I paid for them, and if you end up using them for commercial purposes, pay for them. If there's anything you're looking for please let me know. They are primarily, fonts from Future Fonts (linked below)
  • The Ultimate Oldschool PC Font Pack ↗ Really cool versions of fonts from old computers available as contemporary font files. Everything is free on here. Wonderful resource!
  • Velvetyne ↗"libre" fonts (that is free) and also includes glyphs or "source" files.
  • Future Fonts ↗ Here you're able to download fonts that are "in progress," designers will link new versions as they are made, usually adding more character sets or features. By paying early you help subsidize the designer as well as gaining access to all future versions. Some fonts have "demo" versions with limited character sets.
  • OHNO Type Co. Demo Fonts ↗ Many of James Edmondson's fonts are on Adobe Fonts (look for Oh No there if you search by foundry), but you're also able to acquire demo fonts here with limited features.
  • Communal Class Font, v.01 ↗
  • Behance "free font" search ↗ Here are a bunch of free fonts on Behance. Some of them are quite fun or unusual if you feel you need that for a project.

HTML-related Resources

  • W3 Schools HTML pages ↗ W3Schools is generally a good resource for most programming related material. This is the general HTML page.
  • MDN page on Semantic HTML ↗ This page has a bit more specific information on semantic HTML which we will be learning about. MDN (Mozilla Developer Network) reference pages can get a bit nerdy, they are intended to be references for nerds, but they are very good and exhaustive pages if you need very specific information.
