Ripping off from "google web fonts" and downloading fonts from torrents will hardly add anything to cost. I googled for the font which i really like and found it for FREE !
Compare these two
http://www.google.com/webfonts#ChoosePlace:select
http://www.fontnirvana.com/
What do you think ? Did google ripoff fontnirvana ?
try reading the glyphs of the each font and writing codes to find values of each parameter and then adding them them to the database and sorting the fonts according to that.
We picked up design elements from there because its simple and functional..
google created its OWN fonts and sorted them we worked 10x harder than them to sort the fonts etc (they only have 500.. we have 120k+)... we never said we created the fonts.. there is a lot that goes to the backend of stuff like this...
Just making the fonts display live and change and load the next set without you noticing took a lot of effort...!
If you dont appreciate it you really dont understand technology I think. Why all the hate?
