For a company grounded in typography and design your site leaves me speechless! Agghh my eyes!

shouldn't it then be.. 'Dear Fonts...' ???

also if its grounded in typography why would the site need to be anything other than a holding site for that typography?
if their content is what drives their business then sure i can agree with you, but they provide fonts not web layout design..
right? or im just unaware..

I agree. Their audience is designers and creative professionals. Why would you design a shite site that holds fonts with such caliber as Baskerville, Helvetica etc? Its almost disrespectful and makes you look like an untrustworthy amateur.

It should just be text, amirite?

Yep there are some good ones. Like Hellogoodbye said the monotype site is kinda insulting. They expect us to invest in their industry and yet it's clear they haven't really invested back into the design industry.
