Default Choosing a font.

What do you think of the font on my webpage? I would like to know if you think the size needs to be larger or smaller or if you don't think it goes with the page t all.

Thanks for the advice

I like the large fonts (if they are not just a tool for selling online useless things), so it is fine in my opionion

Default Re: Choosing a font.

I viewed this on 2 different computers and the font was different on each one. You're using a non standard font (Chiller I believe). Whilst this may achieve the effect you desire, it is not seen on all viewing machines as this font is not installed.

As for the size of the font, that's OK.

Default Re: Choosing a font.

I'm kinda new to the web, and that font was out of the ordinary from what I have seen so far. Also, I didn't have my glasses on and it was really hard to read. I tried to highlight some of the text, and it wouldn't highlight for me!

However, when I disabled the styles everything was easy to discern. I'm lucky I was able to disable styles, unlike most people.

Looking at the bottom links was almost impossible! Also, the links at the top didn't let me know if I had been there before, so I ended up visiting the same page several times, and it was very irritating. Also, they were so small, my shaky hands weren't able to click the links! I couldn't even tell they were links until they changed when I hovered over them.

I didn't know how to get around when the link format changed when I clicked the "forum" button, and the white input buttons on the contact page were different from the input buttons on the forum that blended in. That was so confusing to understand!

Those under construction notices made me want to leave right away! That was so weird for me. Why have a link to a page that isn't finished?

I hoped you enjoyed my review of your site from a non-web-savvy person.
