Obliqua and Bolivar appear to have disappeared from the libraries and search. Will they return? And what will happen to kits that contained them when they were available?

I have a DISH DVR attached to my TV, and it has different modes that I can use to browse through the channel guide. Normally, I have it limited to just show my favorite channels, but I can click a button to expand the view to all the channels that I subscribe to, and then again to see all the channels that DISH offers. This lets me see everything that’s playing on even the channels I don’t subscribe to, and maybe someday I’ll feel compelled to add a channel or two so I can get that premium content.

On TypeKit, when I’m browsing through my list of trial library fonts, trying to decide which to use, I have no idea that the perfect font is a mere $25/year away! Yes, I found the libraries, but I have to click into upgrade, then the /libraries/ link, then “View the Fonts,” and then switch to the upper libraries via tabs at the top… I would love it if along with By Style and By Tag in the browse view, I could also choose By Account Level to see the fonts that I don’t have access to right now, but could via upgrade.

I totally appreciate that you didn’t want to hit users over the head with upgrade buttons — good call! But it’s a little hard to know that there’s that much of a carrot out there for the upgrade. When I originally signed up the only differences I noticed were the pricing, limits, and badging.

Thanks!

It goes to one of those awful domain squatter websites. 🙂
