I have spent a good couple of hours or so this morning trying to get the fonts on here looking a little nicer.

I took the same font settings from my current forum software, and used them in fud forum.. Still looks like poo poo Sad

What is it with the fonts? How can I get them to look like the fonts on my current software:

Apparently I need to do more then just give the font type to your style sheet editor. Any suggestions?

You're CSS still contains many "Tahoma, Verdana, Myriad Web, Syntax, sans-serif;", while you're hebb forum is exclusively "Arial, Verdana". You probably want to change all the "Tahoma, Verdana, Myriad Web, Syntax, sans-serif;" to "Arial, Verdana".

That may do the trick for you.

Also, consider the font sizes, hebb from the html seems to use <font size="2"> almost everywhere, you may want to add
"font-size: small;" parameter to the common styles.

If you want ICQ me, or join #fudforum on irc.openprojects.net
i'll help you configure your color layout.

what you have to doo is enter the font data into every bit of the styles. Look at the attached gif

It would seem that this is the only way to make it work properly in all browsers as some browsers "choose" not to inherit certain CSS properties. Although not styles need this, since some only affect table structure rather then their contents. I'll modify the default style to accommodate this problem.

Should be fine in the next release.
