Im going to start a small vinyl sticker/graphic business. I need to know where to get fonts and designs. Are there any good free websites with fonts or designs that can be used for commercial use? Also is there a decent software for designing thats not super expensive?

Congrats on your business!!! I started doing this a few years ago! For fonts dafont.com for designs adobe illustrator is perfect! You can pay monthly for it, or Corel draw anything that will let you vectorize your images. Don't go cheap you will hate your life! Haha there is also free vector programs but you still need to design and what not

Sounds like you need to do a lot more research OP if you want to take this seriously. Don't go putting your money into something you're too lazy to research the basics for in 10 min online. Just my .02

Ok, I was just curious. I thought maybe you were looking at special graphics targets. My best advice, other than continuing your research before putting out money for equipment, is to know your market base and strive for the highest quality graphics possible. Also, choose your fonts carefully for every project.
