Along with color schemes, keep typography in mind for your next design!
Of course, non-standard typefaces are still rather limited on the web, and sIFR isn't the solution. Nonetheless, exceptions can be made for wordmarks and logotypes. With luck, Webkit's expanding market share will finally bring font embedding to the web. Progressive enhancement, anyone?
Prediction: Jos Buivenga will become the implicit answer to John Gruber's dilemma of embedded typefaces: "The fonts you’re allowed to embed legally aren't worth using; the fonts that are worth using aren't embeddable."

- alabut 18y agoI've been loving this guy's fonts for about a year or two now, he gets featured regularly in smashingmagazine and it's totally deserved. For something with a bit more personality (which means you can't use it on every project) check out his Diavlo font, it's the one I used in this piece of my portfolio: http://alabut.com/work.html#paybackable http://alabut.com/work.html#paybackable
- unalone 18y agoJos Buivenga, along with John Gruber, is responsible for introducing me to the world of typography. I'm seconding this guy as a terrific resource for free fonts, and as a great read if you want to know where designers get their idea for fonts.
