Fonts

Here are a few different fonts I use in my themes I've made them into images so you can see them (font text test is in that font)
 


Mosh pitfont text test


francinemk font text test


bell bottom laser font text test


times new roman font text test

Now I've put the font name underneath the image, but unless you have the font installed you will possibly see them all as times new roman
the bottom one is times new roman
To change font face in CSS its fairly easy if you want it all over
body {font-family: times new roman;} that will change font everywhere
In certain parts say page title h1#page_owner_title {font-family: francinemk;} that will make your page title the one font and everywhere else a different one

Remember only you will see the font if its different to the "standard" windows fonts (could you see the fonts above? )
So and here's a tip as there are a few windows fonts get one close to what you have already  say I used bell bottom lazer as my main all over font
body {font-family: bellbottomlazer;} you can't see it, the one closest to it is
comic sans so if I do this
body {font-family: bellbottomlazer, Comic Sans MS} then you will see comic sans
It works this way your computer sees the first one on the list it recognizes ,it knows comic sans so it goes "Yay I know that one I'll show the font as that one"

Oh and don't forget some fonts come up bigger than others I've made those all the same size so you  can see them but both francinemk and Mosh Pit are small sized fonts
the times new roman is font-size:30px those are something like 40px.
Others are BIG I used one once called brandegoris even on size 12 it came out huge had to stop using it the font size of the actual font was messing my page alignment up

Just thought I'd throw this in seeing as folks were asking :-D

(Browser safe fonts) - Web design tips & tricks

"If you are new to web design, maybe you are thinking: "Why I have to limit to that small set of fonts? I have a large collection of nice fonts in my computer". Well, as seasoned web designers already know, browsers can use only the fonts installed in the same computer, so it means that every visitor of your web page needs to have all the fonts you want to use installed in his/her computer. Of course, different people will have different fonts installed, and thus come the need of a standard set of fonts. Fortunately, CSS allows set several values for the font-family property, which eases the task a bit."

Don't forget to look at the screenshots of how the different font look on different browsers and operating systems
