Last March Tumblr began offering premium themes and since then we have seen select companies test the waters of this new and interesting market. For those of us that watched this develop, it was interesting to see the many mixed reactions from Tumblr’s users.

Not All Typefaces are Created Equal
Part of the original inspiration for this particular article stemmed from some recent designs that I have been working on where clients requested particular fonts to be used. The problem (from my perspective), was these fonts (or at least the variations that are being chosen) were not actually ideal for the particular purposes for they were being requested.
