Hello!
I have come across a font used on a few site that I would love to obtain. An example of it is on this site (http://www.punchstock.com) and it is the font used for the small top navigation (HOME, HELP, CONTACT, REGISTER, etc).
These buttons are graphics, but the font has the characteristics of html type in that there is no anti-aliasing; it's just as crisp as can be because its rendered pixel by pixel. I think it's very readable, even at this small size, and looks cool to boot. Even better, it won't change size with the whims of the browser, platform or user.
If anyone out there knows what this font is called, where I can find it, or if it's created through some clever trick, I'd be forever in your debt if you shared.
Thanks,
Dave

Pixel fonts are surging in popularity for that very reason.... check out www.fontsforflash.com for a great collection of pixel fonts...keep in mind they are intended to be used only at the pre-set size....and they have to be bult to rest on even pixels...no decimals in your X/Y Coordinates.
