Rather than hijacking the http://www.sonycreativesoftware.com/forums/ShowMessage.asp?MessageID=809559&Replies=32Fools rush in...[/link] thread where Guy S. made the valid comment, "In terms of editing technique: Text - Go for readability first, then style. Size is not the only factor when it comes to readability..." I thought I might post a humorous, almost disastrous example.

I've hooked up with a group of Nature Photographers that post their work in the Flickr photo sharing site. The group had a meet-and-greet about a month ago, so I made a video of the occasion.

To my eye, the Copperplate font always looked like a classy font that incorporated both "readability and style". Well, when I produced the title sequence, something didn't look right, so I needed the change the font to Brush Script.

I'll leave it as a user exercise to display "Flickr" in the Copperplate font.
