Free Font sites (that aren't scams)

Hi all,

I know we've got that CMS sticky up at the top, but what else does a web designer/dabbler need? Fonts!

How about we start a list of the best scam-free font sites out there. Anyone who's typed "free fonts" into Google knows there's a ton of trash to wade through...

I'll start:

»www.dafont.com/

Found a few really good ones there for a flyer I'm working on.

Just to expand the topic, what are some of your favorite fonts and why? Any artsy ones? any plainish but easy to read ones?

I haven't had the time to search the font sites y'all posted yet but I would like to shortcut reading the fine print - I work for a SMALL (>10 employees) company and the person who built our original site used a font that is pay for use - the freebie Microsoft version introduces a visual error egregious to me but not my employer (in this matter I hold sway - believe me the substitute font is hideous)

Just checked it, still active.

Link to that post »[Free] Fonts and Dingbats
A bunch of screenshots of them, and a bunch of other links added by software forum-ites in that thread.

I also go with the OP and recommend dafont.com . I've found tons of REAL nice fonts on there before. Highly recommended.
