FONT HELP

So just before Xmas my apartment was broken into and both my stereo system and G5 Apple Mac were stolen. Luckily they didn't take any of my records and I had backed up the majority of my work on the Mac about a week before. Trouble is I hadn't backed up my font library and I'm now missing about 500 fonts that I've used in the past for various ongoing design works. I know that there are a lot of talented designers on these boards and was hoping some of you could help me with some in particular that I'm looking for or maybe point me in the direction of some good font downloading sites.Any help would be really appreciated!

    Sorry to hear about the break in...

    Had this thread saved as one of my favorites. Its helped me find some fonts for flyers I've made. Hope it helps...

    add to this list ITC Bookman Bold Italic Swash...anybody actually have a TTF of this???! i heard there was one available in the early 90s with all the swashes and everything..its ridiculous what a comeback this has started making although i kinda predicted it...

    also if somebody can hook me up with a TTF of ITC Avant Garde Bold with all the ligatures and alternate characters i'll be happy. i'm kinda over both these fonts but ive always at least wanted real versions of them.

    oh shit!!!!!!! me and my sister had a sheet of these! i loved them. one time we had to go to some funeral or something and in like, the "kids room" at the church there was a few of these painted on the wall!

    man i need to step up my rub-on letter game, i have lowercase bookman bold italic swash, which im happy with (also has the Th/Ch ligatures) and a bunch of normal shit but i wanna get a better collection going...
