tynamite's avatar I have my own unique style of design, because I hate everyone else's design choices; and whenever I design something, I always use the same fonts.

If you've ever seen me add an image I made in a comment thread I made, you might have noticed it, but can't yet put your finger on what it is. Well here's how (somewhat), (you haven't asked me to describe my design style yet).

Everything I design, no matter how unique I make it, it always looks like me, as I always use the same conventions. My 2 rules of design are

Use your conventions, following the same bloody rules like you're retarded

Do just ONE thing different that you never did before, that no one else did - to add the magic sparkle, like this, ;]

These are the screen fonts that I use, they only work at large sizes

Eteristics (I made this font myself, especially for graphical user interfaces. If I had Linux, it would only be using this font. This font needs kerning as it only works on images, no webpages, so someone might want to help me on that.) #teamblackberry

4. Toshna (my serif font)

5. This font is my golden bullet as it can be used for both screen and print. I call it my plain font. Helvetica, Myriad Pro, Avenir, and Gotham can get merked.

Frugal Sans is my (sans font)

familiarity-breaks-on-printout

Below are the slight variations to use for the 0.000000001% of reasons.

X. Cardo (It looks similar to Toshna, but it has a more peculiar Charlotte's Web, idealistic and deluded type look. It is more idealistic than grounded - subtle differences.)

If those fonts don't exist, I use Calisto MT as it comes free with Microsoft Word, and Macs because of it.

What's an assertion, and what should I type in?

Compesh is a question and answer (and debate) website, so before you make a debate, you better learn what an assertion is. I suppose you already know what a question is, and that you've typed it in the box. ;)

An assertion, is basically a statement you can make, that is either true or false.

Richer people have better health.

The question for that would be, Do richer people have better health?

And don't forget to make your assertion, match your question.
