Awesome :)

The site doesn't seem to say if they're free or what?

Correct, WolRon

But since the majority of the fonts are from old tech-demo's on the C64/Amiga/Atari etc, and from game companies, who now no longer exists, I would say that they're pretty safe to use without worrying.

Buhu thats too sad . . =(

I actually remember some of the intros/demos that these fonts come from. Too cool! Nice walk down memory lane...

yeah, there are some pretty cool fonts from good old demo-school! :-D

What kind of file types are fonts? These are really cool.

PATISAWESOME: They are bitmap fonts, which means lettering created and stored as images!

EVERYBODY: If you guys like oldskool and the demos scene. Check DBF out at: http://pub161.ezboard.com/bdbf Come on over!!! :)

I met the Lost Boys a few times at various computer Fairs,
they used to release there demos under Budgie UK Licenceware,there fonts are great,nice guys too.

The C64 and Amiga / ST demo scene was great! I love it :)

for those interested, I came across another very good font site today:

Tons of fonts, freeware. explicitely allowed to be used in commercial applications as well.

Aside from TrueType font, there are also color bitmap versions available of most of 'em.
