Headline for digital sports site

isokon

I've been setting in Gotham, but I'm looking for something a little more (subtly) aggressive...

Hi Frode,
what face is that?

The universe is an infinite sphere whose center is everywhere and whose circumference is nowhere.

Avenue Smal – still on the drawing board.

Love how Frode's face is coming along, but I'd call it more warm and antique, not so much aggressive.

What about something more square like Stainless or FF Cube?

I'm really digging Square, thanks for the tip! i'll let you know how it plays.

The universe is an infinite sphere whose center is everywhere and whose circumference is nowhere.

True, Steph. I'm designing it as a headline face. Plenty of punch and quirks. Might be to quirky for sports. Anyway, I wouldn't use anything from me quite yet:) There's still a long way to go on consistency.

Nice Frode.

Maybe it is just web usage, but do the W and M in the sample not seem a bit heavier than the other characters?

Ergo: consistentcy.

For me a grat typography for that can be
Chaco: http://tipo.net.ar/chaco/index.html
or Urbana: http://new.myfonts.com/fonts/cepuertas/urbana/

Regards!
