looks good on large type (40px +) but these guys are getting carrried away with the style. Barely legible in places.

I like bits of it but it's a bit of a mess in general.

I really like it - not sure where there are any outlines typefaces though...
(although I'd dread to see it on windows - how does the type render?)

I think the reason I like it is that it feels quite refreshing and fun, particularly for an agency. Admittedly some of the images feel ill considered and just shoved in, but the typography and grid are clean and bold, and that reflects their brand.

I have had problems with Helvetic too on my mac...resulting in outlined fonts being used on the type on my Dashboard widgets.
- that sentence hardly makes sense...apologies.thebottlerocket

BINGO - My bad - for some reason the Helvetica type the website was requesting of my system defaulted to the outlined version of it and not the normal version.

Citizen and TBR, you use this?
http://www.linotype.com/fontexpl…You can clear out your font cache and clean up your system fonts easily (but takes about an hour) and it sorted out some font issues I was having on my PB at home. Worked like a charm.
- yeah I use that already and have just removed the outlined font.citizen_h
- It'll help. Try this also: http://www.linotype.…ian
