Thanks Jamal! Finding a good font for a project is a challenge. In AE there are no samples to choose from just the name. I end up using the ones I know.

I wonder if the fonts listed are in AE or have to purchase from DaFont or the other site mentioned?

Yes, wow - what a find - and those I tried seemed to be free downloads.

But I am not sure I will have a use for "He's Dead Jim" even though I am a trek fan.

I can't agree that all those are good for titles. Mamma Gamma, for example would be lousy for titles -- too illegible. Might be a good choice if you were angry at your audience and wanted to make them work to figure out what you wrote though. :-D
