Fonts
I notice that only the standard verdana, tahoma, arial and times etc i.e. the plain seraphed and sans seraphed fonts seem to abound on the boards. Which fonts are available for use. There are thousands and of course being a Mac user, I love playing around with different effects with different fonts. What options do I have the the boards?

Re: Fonts
The ones you listed are the ones that almost every computer has. If you specify something that someone doesn't have, it won't display it.

Re: Fonts
That's what I thought. I just wondered if any others were available - looking at all the options.

Re: Fonts
Lesa used Comic Sans on our Autumn board for the banner so maybe that one is a safe bet.

Re: Fonts
Maybe this list will help.
webdings, wingdings and symbol aren't displaying for me in Firefox, but I doubt you would want to use those for a web page anyway.

Re: Fonts
Thanks for that list. It'll help me when designing the seasons banners. I got lucky on the first two.

Re: Fonts
Thanks for that list - that helps.
I found out how to download news ones to my font book yesterday. I was looking for Old English fonts and I cam across Glastonbury. I like that one. Fonts have always been another one of my favorite things (like smilies), I can use them in headers that I use in the boards as jpgs. Thanks.
