AGAIN. This time, however, I plan on keeping it that way.
I do, however, want to put a few more codes onto this place. Hang with me.

I was wondering why it looked different! I personally like it how it is now.

It's kinda like the Peanuts font. Cute. I also see you combined the International DoND boards into just Canada and then one for all the others. I thought at first Mexico and UK were made into sub-boards. (Nothing changed. I'm being stupid, that's all, and accidently clicked the "modify" button instead of the "quote" button. )

There wasn't really a lot of talk for both the Mexican and UK versions, so I combined them into one board. If there's enough talk about them, I'll bring the boards back.

Sorry, but I hate Comic Sans. Haaaate! Gotta agree w/ you, Shelly!! After more than 12 hours of sleep last night (10:30 p.m. to 11:15 a.m.), I logged-on to the boards, and notice the FONT changed. Today is my day off from work!! My login in to the DOND messages boards has the Season 1 pics as the background DOND skin, and most of the color all over is green and blue, with mostly the yellow VERDANA font. Here are some fonts that I would prefer for this message board. Some look professional when I italicize or bold-print words, letters/numbers, phrases, sentences, etc. Preferred FontsVERDANA Verdana (what I previously had) TIMES NEW ROMAN Times New Roman ARENA CONDENSED Arena Condensed UNIVERSAL UniversalARIAL Arial (what was previously the font for the main white & grey background) HELVETICA Helvetica / SWISS Swiss (sorry, I don't have this font installed for Microsoft!!) ANY FONT LIKE THE "BRIEFCASE NUMBERS" (bold or regular) Hope this helps!!

Okay. I'll make a poll for this, and after a week, depending on which font wins, I'll change the font of the board. Sound good to all of you?

Can't wait for the poll!! Let's preview more fonts, that I didn't list from my previous post. Helvetica/Swiss/Briefcase Numbers (regular, condensed, bold, etc.), along w/ Universal (regular, condensed, bold, etc.) fonts are mostly used for local news broadcasts, like my local NBC news station in Cleveland (WKYC-TV Channel 3 News & wkyc.com).

Out of the ones you suggested, I only have the following ones on my computer: Verdana, Times New Roman, and Arial. I have none of the other fonts.

Thumbs up for the poll. Personally, I think we (in general) should stick to "web" fonts (Arial, Verdana, Times [New Roman], Georgia, Trebuchet MS, Tahoma).

The white skin was Arial, while the other two skins were Verdana.

I like the updated portion of this message board as I'm posting my latest replies. I noticed that there is a "Font" scroll-down selector for the other few fonts, as well as a Add Tags section and button-link for Wikipedia (the "W" button), the free encyclopedia. What I'm looking forward to this summer is that poll to decide what permanent font will be used for this board.

Personally, I find the font currently used on this board to be almost unreadable on IE at medium text size. I have to switch it to large font in order to see anything...I wish the default font size was one size bigger...
