This site uses Arial all over the place. But Arial is a cheap bastard font. Helvetica is much, much prettier. CreateBlog's stylesheet should prefer Helvetica over Arial.

You'd pay for a font if you don't want the watered-down pirated version of Helvetica, where it's probably named something lame like...Telvetica. I'm not taking graphic design so seeing Verdana around the forums isn't really pissing me off that much. =p What really pisses me off, though, is when people change the font of their posts to something tiny and unreadable, or serif. |
