My site

[owl]

Sleek-ish version of my site is now on the server. I'm just tweaking the layout and the stylesheet at the minute. Some of you do web design; what are good fonts to use? Non-fugly, easy to read and likely to be installed on most people's computers?

What do you all think of it?

Looks awesome, Cat! As for fonts: I know "back in the day" when I designed websites (this was four-ish years ago, I suppose), Times New Roman was the "fugly font." I have no idea if this trend has changed--IMO, it looks fine on your site. Basically, the most common fonts are Arial, Verdana, and Tahoma.

You used a style sheet, yes? Those are fun for websites, because you can really fiddle with the way the font looks.

In terms of the guestbook/counter: Is there anyway to make that font smaller? It's just distracting, IMO. Cool features, though. :D

Also: I LOVE the picture on the far left of ESB Leia--is it a screen cap, or just a random picture?

Anyway! Awesome work! Hope I helped, and good luck with the site! :D

Yes, that's a style sheet. CSS owns me. It's so much easier that changing every attribute in every tag.

I'm using Arial Narrow, Verdana and Georgia at the minute, as well as serif for the main titles. What's a good font for those?

I made the guestbook links smaller. Is it better now?

I like it! Do you want people to contribute to the fanart/multimedia sections?

Well, fanart maybe, particularly if they have their own site. I don't have a lot of space.
