Was wondering if you could help me choose a good sans serif screen font (with anti-alias, not bitmap), that looks good from 10pt > 12pt.
I've tried the system fonts, but i'm not getting what i really want to achieve.
Cheers ;)

Lucida Sans has given me the best results so far.
Thanks for the suggestions so far, any more??

ur so mean..... ;P

oh, well, i tried :)
ps, those aren't pixel/bitmap fonts, they are the screenfonts on mac and pc and the safe list is what should work fine on either system. that site is invaluable to a developer
maybe i just don't get what you are wanting

yeah, it's probably my fuckin english? hehe
I mean fonts like the "Broadcast Live", "Cancel" buttons used here on NT. smoothed anti alias fonts, just like the ones listed before (lucida, klavika etc..)
i hope i'm making sense, otherwise i'll go see a doctor...

you just want a pretty font for your site? Now I understand. I myself use klavika at http://justingum.com/
