I just realized that you can use any font in your posts that is on your computer! I'm going to do a couple of test fonts now!

--------------------------------------------
Andale Mono

Book Antiqua

Calisto MT

Rockwell

Tw Cen MT Condensed

System

Georgia

Franklin Gothic Book

Fixedsys

Eras medium ITC

Calisto MT

Arial Narrow

--------------------------------------------
How to see all of your fonts:

~Click on START

~Go to PROGRAMS

~From PROGRAMS go to ACCESORIES

~Click on NOTEPAD or WORDPAD

On NOTEPAD click EDIT and go to SET FONT. Scroll through al the fonts and write down the ones you like! Come back to The Cat Site and go to New Thread or Post Reply. Click on FONT and choose one. Write something short, like Hi. Click OK. Now you should see something like this Hi[/FONT ]. Change the font name to one that is on your computer. For Instance, Comic Sans MS. Write what you want in between!

Good Luck!

Wow, I'm surprised none of you had noticed this before. I never used it since no one else did, so I though perhaps this forum had a rule against it, like some do!

Neat trick!! I'll keep that in mind, although I'm not generally fussy over what my font looks like, as long as you can read it . . .

I had no idea!!! I always thought it depressing that we couldn't use more fonts, thanks Tasha! Here are a few of my fav!
I especially like handwriting fonts (Vivaldi)
This one is Ravie
I also like fonts that really grab your attention (this is called 'Adolescence')
This is called 'Algerian'
This is called 'Banjoman Open Bold'
I really like this one, I use it on some of my greeting cards
This one is EraserDust
This one is kinda nice. All of the ones above I have used a larger font size

Thanks again Tasha, you have made my experience and addiction with TCS even better!

Mine didn't show up right, and I think some of the others look like this plain font too... maybe it's like messenger where the viewer has to have the same font stored to see it. Because the ones I see, I'm pretty sure I have, including the pooh font (my son has one of the games)

There is a SIZE thing beside FONT above your message. Huge is the biggest!
