Can we please get rid of this ugly monospace font? -Tjr 17:58, January 27, 2010 (UTC)

Any suggestions? The monospace format only works well for entries not converted to this format - I'm gonna find some fonts to replace monospace. (If there are no script fonts, monospace should be used.) --Zapwire (talk/blog/edits) 21:23, January 27, 2010 (UTC)
I myself am giving some ideas: Segoe Script (all Vista/7 users have it, pretty safe), Vivaldi Italic (unsure about spelling there), and Papyrus. The only problem is they won't appear in Firefox, it's just giving me plain old sans serif. I myself like monospace though, but opinions are opinions. --Zapwire (talk/blog/edits) 21:28, January 27, 2010 (UTC)
I favor Apple Chancery. The following entries display properly on my system:
Apple Chancery
Segoe Script
Vivaldi Italic
Papyrus

I don't have Chancery, and the fonts I actually have don't display in it. Monospace does. FUUUUUU --Zapwire (talk/blog/edits) 21:50, January 27, 2010 (UTC)

How about Palatino Linotype italics, if the above don't display: -Tjr 22:19, January 27, 2010 (UTC)

Hey, it works now. The onlt browser it doesn't work in is Firefox, despite SeaMonkey (new favourite browser) using the same renderer as it. --Zapwire (talk/blog/edits) 17:11, February 9, 2010 (UTC)
