It has recently come to my attention that the verdana font was modified slightly to fit ff7. I have looked into it and put a few letters in the game to judge peoples response to the different font. S a v e have been changed.

Please take a look at the image below and let me know what you prefer. If there is sufficient interest in using verdana i will probably change the font.

Dont look at save. take a look at the text at the top of the image.
 
Hmm for some reason the new font looks a lot sharper. I like it.
 
Just to let everyone know there is a poll at the top of the page. Please vote.
 
I will go with new assuming that the spacing can be sorted to look smoother :)
 
Verdana is a better font than Tahoma in general. Even if it wasn't MUCH more similar to what is seen in-game, it just looks better anyway.

I have done a partial new font and i am glad to say the spacing looks better. I am doing things a bit different this time. Must be why.
 
I can't seem to find the poll option for "Use the one Timu was supposed to finish like 2 years ago", but that's my selection. :)
 
May I suggest something a little different to make the game font fresh?

No TA is all about maintaining the original graphics but with a hi-res update.

On a related issue, whats with the dropping of the round borders lately?
 
Round borders?  I dunno I just did a quick edit to sl's image.
Then keep original Verdana:

Verdana's much better since it fits the window much better than tahoma.
dragowulf-what's that font called in your first screenshot? I'm finding some fonts that looks good in the game which is not the original but looks good. *not on topic*

The "fresh" font looks good but I agree about maintaining original graphics. Also, how come TA is about originality, yet the TA Download comes with new avatars?
 
Are you talking about the AC avatars? They're optional, but it is a little odd that avatars based on AC would be part of the project. We'd be better off with higher resolution versions of the normal avatars (which are available already, I believe).
 
Dragowulf's looks closer to the original font which I like.  I think you should go for a font that's blocky like the original but less pixely.
I also agree that the AC avatars, new map, and colored menu items don't line up with the project's mission statement but giving the option doesn't hurt.
