Default Small suggestion concerning font

Maybe add some kind of Script to the font list? (i.e. French Script) As long as it's readable, would it be alright? I understand it's not a huge deal, but I don't think it would be a huge project either...then again, what do I know?
Anyways, thanks for hearing me out :]

If you're talking about fonts for the forums it's more than likely out of Administrations grip. They just use software to run the forums and it's not made by themselves. Also people generally aren't too fond of other fonts or using colours in their posts, it's best to stick to the default and only bold or use effects to emphasize something.

What he means is that you should have something to support your answer.

They have language packs for these forums. It can be easily added. I doubt they will, though, because I'm sure none of the staff actually can read French and other languages well enough to moderate.

I think he means, instead of things like it saying "Today, 8:20 AM" (above your post) it would say "Aujourd'hui, 8:20AM", basically changing the forum to the french language for his user name. Like you can change the language on a mobile phone.

Wrong. Wrong, wrong, wrong.
He wants the font "French Script MT" in the the font list, so that he could make his text look like this.

Frozen Earth, just because the font isn't in the list doesn't mean you can't use it. Simply put [*font=insert_font_here]your text[/font*] (remove the asterisks). You can even use non-system fonts. For example, anyone who has the font "Deutsch Gothic" installed should be able to read this part of my sentence in that font.

People are not going to like you if you post in that font. I'd just stick with the forum default.

Also, that font is really hard to read.
