I read a simple and sweet post today by Seth Godin and realized why I will never be a graphic designer. The gist of what he was saying is that most of the time a decent font will suffice but it will never compare to a GREAT font. To me fonts are like music, their are those who can make great music and their are those who can enjoy great music. I fall into the latter group. I feel that I can tell when the perfect font is being used but unfortunately couldn’t tell why it is perfect. In the same way I can tell when a song has all the components of being successful but I can’t tell you what those components are.
