All look the same except Comic Sans

That is why there are designers AND coders. Two different things.

I know i know, I was just talking about the fonts used in the image and Comic Sans stands out the most

Standing out can be a bad thing. In your application the text needs to inform and nothing more.
If you really want to study this matter then you can check Helvetica’s story and why is that font successful. Check for the documentary or whatever info is on the internet.

I still don’t know why do you like a font that looks like formed from balloon animals. Who are the target of your application? Kindergarten kids?

Look,

It’s not that i hate other fonts (i never used Comic Sans till my previous project), But using different font is gonna mess up the design.

I tried using different fonts and they all kinda su*k.

But again i think “Trebuchet MS” will do fine., What do you think about this font?

It does look like Balloons but it goes well with the rest of the interface (i..e wireframe/sketch/mockup like interface.)

Then go ahead and use it! Nobody in this thread is forcing you not to use it. You asked a question (is it really that bad?) and we all gave our opinion. And now it’s your turn to draw a conclusion from that – if you still want to use it, go ahead!

Oh and you miss-spelled Tahoma

I remember using that font for homework at school when I was like… erm.. 10 years old or so.
