A new website

... is alive: tourdefonts.com

I decided to replace old website based on Wordpress which was the result of limited budget and a lot of compromise with a new one. Finally I managed to pack it with some features that should be useful to visitors and customers. The idea of general layout was to be simple, no bragging with cool design ideas and solutions, just fully functional website for average visitor. 

So, what' new?

– instant downloads (no more waiting to approve each order manually);
– free trials (you get download link with an email);
– student discounts;
– Project Tailor (recommends you the right font for your project);
– License Wizard (very simple and basic helper for those who are not familiar with licenses);
– compare fonts (3 selected max);
– Pairing (newspaper layout page with option to pair different fonts for different layout sections);
– 3 different font catalog views: grid, list and names;
– photo and vector mock ups;
...

These are all nothing new on the market, but for me it's a big step upfront and it was a big experience. The biggest challenge was how to display ~150 font families on simple and effective way. That's why I decided to have 3 view modes, even I'm aware that most of the visitors will use default one (grid) mostly, but I wanted to offer diversity for everyone.

It was a big task in any way: logically, organizationally, with resources, time, solutions... It might still contain some minor bugs also. 

Thanks.
