New Font and Slight Layout Tweaks

| No TrackBacks

I’ve finally gotten around to slightly improving the layout of this blog, mostly thanks to the fantastic CSS Editor CSSEdit. Now that font-embedding for the web is finally gaining acceptance, I also switched to the very nice font Fontin Sans by Jos Buivenga (exljbris), which is employed through web font-embedding via @font-face, as supported by Safari 3.1 and Firefox 3.5 and later. Everyone else who doesn’t have Fontin Sans installed will still see this site in Trebuchet MS, Helvetica, Arial or whatever sans-serif font your user agent defaults to.

Please expect minor re-edits of old posts in the following days to manage some of the fallout from these design tweaks.
