After reading about them and looking them over, I've finally decided to | |
take the font plunge using [Google | |
Fonts](http://www.google.com/webfonts#ChoosePlace:select "Google Web Fonts"). | |
The process couldn't be easier, and the results are worth the few | |
minutes time it takes. What really made the process easy, and fun, was | |
the new [Font | |
Combinator](http://font-combinator.com/# "Font Combinator") site. Here | |
you can choose different fonts and see them in action. After picking and | |
discarding several combinations of fonts I finally settled on two. Or | |
three. Okay, seven. After seeing them on my site I was able to narrow | |
things down to just two. The "Zanshin.net" anchor at the top of each | |
page is now in | |
[MedievalSharp](http://www.google.com/webfonts/specimen/MedievalSharp "MedievalSharp"), | |
and the body and everything else is | |
[Muli](http://www.google.com/webfonts/specimen/Muli "Muli"). Along with | |
changing the fonts I've started to fiddle around with the various font | |
sizes. Hopefully the new font and size arrangement makes things more | |
pleasing to the eye and more readable. Depending on how your browser | |
refreshes its cache, you may or may not see the new fonts on your next | |
visit. A quick Google search on "browser refresh cache" will lead you to | |
the steps necessary for your browser. |
