Fuck - Quick Question

Im making my site and using this font my bud gave me for some of the text.

Just dawned on me ...

If the surfer doesnt have the font installed, what happens?

Maybe i should make it into images or just use a different font?

You can have multiple fonts defined, so if the first one isnt on their comp, it goes to the next one, etc.

Also I believe you can make it so it asks to download the font for the site. although I dont remember how to make it check and then ask if you want to download the font or not

good point, but id rather not go that route.

I think im going to either use a new font that comes with winblows, or ill make them all images.

I don't understand, try saying this again - but in english - and with some sort of point at the end. People seem to forget you were caught cheating several times - I'd prefer they didn't forget. You see, the only people who converse with you are the assclowns, and those who just haven't heard what a cocksucker you are.

I bring up old news because it's true, never once have you denied it because you can't. I don't want people doing business with you, I don't want you to succeed - ever. Besides, everyone has a hobby - calling you out is one of mine.

Rich, go fuck yourself -

Yea i cheated, yea i stole .... old news pal ..... and BTW look back in the threads, you only know what i tell you or allow you to know, so dont go thinking your some superstar detective. Same goes for Fletch.

No i dont deny it, never did never will .... it was a learning experience of mine.

I wouldn't do anything to even remotely hurt you, I'm not a malicious person. Rich, all you have is your reputation - and you ruined yours. Nothing I could do would ever top the amount of damage that's going to cause.

Point being what? Because you stole two months ago means you're a hardworking honest guy now? I don't think so. I know that it bothers you when I call you out - that's why it's entertaining for me.

Quote:

You're absolutely correct! Which is exactly why I call you the fuck out every single time I see you. I only know what I've read, and from that I've determined I don't like you or your unprofessional practices. I've deemed you a cheater - because you've cheated. I don't know any more then what I read, I don't know what your scam is now and I don't need to - because you're a cheater I don't trust you and others won't do business with you. Just because no one has caught you recently doesn't mean you're honest - it means you're more sneaky.

You took a long time to learn a simple lesson, but again - you're right. You don't deny it - instead you try to justify it as a natural stage.

Don't we all go through these stages? I remember when I went through my shooting people with a large bore rifle from a water tower stage... boy was that a rough one.

The XP list I got from:
http://www.microsoft.com/typography/fonts/winxp.htm

I think that's got some extras in it though. Need to doublecheck that.

You know I've kept data on every stupid thing about paysite design I could follow including fonts. Stuff like taking the main font used from Arial to Verdana to Times, etc... Or just changing the join links from one to another. Verdana always does well but Arial had done a slight bit better until about five six months ago when we had to start doing more long form designs to convert all the TGP and MGP traffic. Now Verdana passed it up...

So I guess you're right. Anyone want to venture a guess as to why though?

Interesting study on fonts. Makes sense to what I found. When we switched to the designs that need more descriptive text, the Verdana did better but for short title type text the Arial was better.
