I try and duplicate some magazine covers with things I render in rhino and other progs say making my own time magazine covers, does anyone know of a site that discusses which fonts are used in the major magazines. I'm looking for fonts for US news, Life, Popular mechanics. popular science and various other news magazines I can't think of now. Thanks.

If you're talking about the mastheads, I think you'll find these are all custom-made, not any particular font. I'd throw the mag on the scanner, load the pix in PS, draw paths & stroke 'em. (Sorry if this is a duplicate message -- I didn't think my first try actually posted.)
