Questions: Can you tell that the font for my subject and for my sidebar titles isn't the typical font?
Can you tell this is written in a different font?
How did I accomplish this?

Answer: Google Fonts. Firefox has a tough time with fonts but Google Fonts provides you

This is clever - thanks! May I ask where you got the .woff format link? All Google Fonts will give me is this type of link: http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=BenchNine , etc.

Nevermind... I just answered my own question. Apparently going to the short link gives you that code. Ha. Thanks anyway :)

[sireesanwar]

Yes, it took me a bit to figure that out myself.

Where is the short link?

[sireesanwar]

So the images above show you but basically at Google Fonts if you click on a font they give you this page and some of their coding has the short link in it....

If you put that shortlink into the browser you get the coding you can add to your Custom CSS section you can use that font.

Thank you so much for the reply I figured it out before I had to go into work today. I felt accomplished took me a while tho! Thanks again!

It's always good to learn something new and to start using it all over the place. LOL
