The artifacts created with this tools looks exactly like those created with Balsamiq...
- giu 17y agoAnd although there are tons of fonts you could choose to use, they've chosen Comic Sans, which is also used by Balsamiq...
- dchest 17y agoMy fresh Windows XP installation doesn't have any fonts other than Comic Sans that look similar to sketch style writing. What font would you suggest?
- giu 17y agoI know of Dafont.com's Handwritten section. Maybe you'll make a find there: http://www.dafont.com/theme.php?cat=603 http://www.dafont.com/theme.php?cat=603 . Although I don't know if the usage of these fonts is restricted by a license. It's nice that you listen and respond to such light criticism. Please note: No offense meant with my comment above :). It was just one of the first things I noticed (next to the lines) that reminded me of Balsamiq. I hope you can find an alternative font. Update: You also can make your own handwritten font using http://www.yourfonts.com/ http://www.yourfonts.com/, bypassing license restrictions that come with other fonts
- dchest 17y agoThis is a good suggestion. Unfortunately many handwritten fonts don't have full Unicode versions, which is important for us. Maybe we'll consider buying a license from some foundry, but they might cost too much for us at this time.
- maxklein 17y agoHumour Sans
- RyanMcGreal 17y agoSans humour.
- corruption 17y agoNapkin look and feel for java predates them both by years. Balsamiq doesn't have a trademark on hand drawn ui's.
- dchest 17y agoThese are drawn in code, so any similarities with Balsamiq are probably not intentional. This is because both our product and Balsamiq try to simulate hand-drawn lines :)
