Hey does anyone have a web font kit website that I can go to? I like web-font-squirrel but it's not working right now :(

Try Google.;)
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

Matt – Not sure what you mean by not working, the site is up and running.
I do have a problem with their web-font kits on one computer. If I download to that computer, I can't open the .zip file (all other .zip files are OK). If I send the same Font Squirrel .zip to a different computer, it works just fine. So, If that's what's going on – try a different computer to see if it works.
Google fonts don't show up on all devices. My Kindle and phone (Android) don't display Google fonts. I haven't found any settings that might change this. I don't know about Apple products. If I want to use a Google font, I check to see if it's available as a font kit as well, or accept that a default font (Arial, Lucida...) will show instead.

Heya paintbrush, it isn't letting me download the completed file. I can get it to work if I just had the .zip file, but it's not downloading on either of my PC's. I have a laptop and a desktop PC, but they just aren't downloading.
I used Adobe's typekit, because I have a subscription from school, but it wasn't the font I wanted.
I checked out another site that supposedly packed the files together, and they aren't loading as well.

I just downloaded a font-kit and a .ttf file. Worked as it should.
Are you trying to download a font from FS, or upload your own font to convert it to a web font?
Have you tried a different font, in case there's a problem with your chosen font?
Could it be a problem with your computers' security not letting it download?
