Here's an innocent link being shared on Twitter:

Free Font FP Head Pro by Fontpartners http://post.ly/T7r Font72

I don't want to pick on @imjustcreative, but this is a complete link fail. It could only be worse if it used a framing short URL.

When you click on the link you get taken to Graham's Posterous blog, then to fontsquirrel. They appear to be the vendor, but confusingly their download button takes you offsite and dumps you on fontpartners.com. You have finally arrived at your destination, but now you have to remember what the font you wanted was called and find it yourself.

This is the link you needed in the first place: http://fontpartners.com/fpHead_pro.html

Spot anything wrong? Yup, that's right, no 'free download' link. Just the option to buy at the top.

In the time it has taken me to compose this, @imjustcreative replied to my moan on Twitter:

@Foomandoonian now ur just being lazy and whingy, just be thankful you have a link at all :)

Yeah, thanks buddy.
