Thanks a bunch Barry < Message edited by barry -- 4/15/2004 10:46:50 >

Create a file in notepad with the url of the file. Save it as .m3u Upload the m3u file and set the hyperlink to call that. _____________________________ If it ain't broke..... fix it until it is.

Peppergal Posts: 2207 Joined: 9/20/2002 Status: offline	RE: What do you think? - 4/15/2004 13:22:10 I love the page - but I don't like the font for Lombard Writer's Project. I dislike the font and the color. As to suggestons - I don't have any right this moment, but I'm also rushed to get my info to Uncle Sam. _____________________________ Northeast PA / Poconos/ Lake Wallenpaupack Real Estate wallenpaupacklakeproperty.com Karen's Real Estate Blog (in reply to barry)

I got socks older than 18 My mind says I am still 18 but everybody else in the world says I am 40 Karen, picking fonts for me is like picking window dressing for my home, our my wifes shoes. I will most lickly get it wrong. So what do you suggest I use? Thanks all, Barry < Message edited by barry -- 4/15/2004 15:13:13 > (in reply to jaybee)


Peppergal Posts: 2207 Joined: 9/20/2002 Status: offline	RE: What do you think? - 4/15/2004 15:49:04 Barry, I made a quick mock up here - I used Prima Sans BT, but you could also use Trebucet (sp?) or Zaf Humanst, as well. I put a slight horizontal shadow - lighter gray, vertical 0, horizontal 3, with zero blur.

Peppergal Posts: 2207 Joined: 9/20/2002 Status: offline	RE: What do you think? - 4/15/2004 16:26:44 Well, the problem is...the rest of the site looks more mature; the font just doesn't mix with the rest of the design. Maybe if you made a few boxes subtle blues and yellows to make it more primary looking... I think there might be a better font than Comic Sans though...let me look. _____________________________ Northeast PA / Poconos/ Lake Wallenpaupack Real Estate wallenpaupacklakeproperty.com Karen's Real Estate Blog (in reply to barry)

Peppergal Posts: 2207 Joined: 9/20/2002 Status: offline	RE: What do you think? - 4/15/2004 17:02:49 Ahh, but it would appeal to your audience/users... how about Brush art...looks like handwriting...
