Never been to ComicBookFonts.com, suspect I will be dropping a goodly amount of cash there now. A blog post on favorite font sites sounds fantastic. @Adam — Thanks!

You're right, the font I used for the URL isn't part of the Lovecraft collection. It's from another great source for fun, retro style fonts, <a href="http://www.comicbookfonts.com/index.html" rel="nofollow">ComicBookFonts.com</a>. The font is <a href="http://www.comicbookfonts.com/fonts/catalog.html?item=fonts:fx111&sid=0001rY5a0ZvdJJEXA88H005" rel="nofollow">Monster Mash</a>. I should do a blog post round-up of my favorite font sites. @Greg: Good catch! You’re right, the font I used for the URL isn’t part of the Lovecraft collection.

Love the one for the URL at the bottom, but don't think it's featured in that set. Also, do you have any kind of tips on general font management in Photoshop? Find it a real pain, particularly as I've added in more and more fonts that are specific-use oriented.

I'm a big fan of your work and Go Media in general. I've spent a lot of time practicing techniques I learned there, so I'm glad to be able to give back. I'd definitely encourage folks to go check out the tutorial Jeff mentions. @Jeff: Thanks a lot! I’m a big fan of your work and Go Media in general.

The halftone effect at the end is nice, I'll be doing that on my next project hehe. Oh, I share some similar aging techniques that you guys might be interested in my latest tutorial: http://www.gomediazine.com/tutorials/illustrator/iconic-poster-design-tutorial-with-video/ I have others too. One of my favorite techniques is applying noise to a layer, then blurring it, then smart sharpening it, then adjusting levels. Rinse and repeat until you have just the perfect amount of imperfect grain. Nice techniques in here Adam, I learned a thing or two.
