Font Styles?

Post by way_2_fun »

I was wondering if it's possible to have different fonts other than this current one? But ones that are readable, so users don't post things we cannot read. And would it be possible (if it's possible to have other fonts) to make and other type of font the default one.

This current font is plain and boring. :P

Well, on another forum, someone did something like this: font=garamond and whoooaaazooom! He could write in Garamond...And with any other font he could do this.

[font=arial]I give it a try[/font=arial]

Well, it doesn't work... :cry:

And it's not going to happen, sorry. For one, I'd have to hack around in phpBB to make it work. Two, I don't really want a hundred different fonts on every page (or even just 3 or 4 different ones). Three, I like Verdana. ;)

Well, font does not matter for me (Verdana is good, though I like Times), but pleeeeaaaase :bow: install Hungarian language for me (and for the other 4-5 Hungarians hanging around). Thanks!

Verdana's fine.
We should just leave it.

If you were able to change the font I think it would start to look poor.

Hey, G-Klav! If you're interested in Hungarian language, we can create a new off-topic, tell me, and I'll start something like "Hungarian for beginners". :D

By the way, you're right. Rainbow is not good. The problem is the same as with Toyland graphics.

Well, I guess if I wanted differnet fonts, I could always allow HTML code. (not giving any ideas)

Thing is, not everyone would have their HTML option on. :roll:

There actually is, with all the tags, you could make a website and post it. You could stretch the page, with millions of &nbsp's, you could add frames and play a 10mb video in it... or something like that.
