    Whitney is probably the nicest of the bunch you’ve listed. I know Chris Pearson at http://www.pearsonified.com/ is a fan as you can see it in use there.

    well, zeus,
    if you buy the BASIC Whitneypack you get away with 200$..-)))
    I agree it is very attractive and quite expensive, though.

    I would buy it if I would design printed matter,
    but for a blog header only….

    how often I wish we could use special fonts for the actual webpage content,
    not only the graphic elements. basically there are only 4 fonts to choose from for the content of a page, this is quite often a no-win situation…

    sorry.
