One of the most
popular typefaces of the 90’s has become “ringard” (old fashioned) and even
ridiculed. It was designed for use by children, with its bold, rounded
characters, but started to appear everywhere and even in places where it was
not appropriate – on ambulances or undertakers’ publicity. An Australian designer
felt sorry for all those red-nosed users and has re-engineered it to look more
modern. Of course TAGlines would not be so crass and if you want to be “cool”
too, don’t use Comic Sans (yet).
