Font Embedding!


OMG. I <3 FONT EMBEDDING. Current generation browsers are finally, FINALLY, moving towards support for embedded fonts, and this means webpages can now look SEXY. (drools all over happy pages)

So yeah, putting the finishing touches on my new site, and EEK does it look pretty! XD And HOLY F*CK has it take forever! ;_; I've been teaching myself PHP and a better understanding of the CSS language (which is actually ridiculously easy once you understand what you can and CAN'T do with it) and everything for the site is finally starting to come together.

HOLY COW I'M SO EXCITED. I feel like I'm getting a new lease on my career and on life. All this energy comes rushing in from nowhere and I want to jump to the sky and shout with joy. The last time I moved, it was a bad, horrible, terrible decision, and in my gut, I knew so. But this time around, I know it's the RIGHT decision, that good things are going to happen, and that I just need to GO. Only ten more days until I move--

HOLYBANANAS!YES!

--and I'll be living in THE most multi-cultural city in the US. Maybe on our planet. I can say "sayonara" to Austin for the time being (though I'll be back to visit!) and "howdy" to my new city.

(hugs New York City)

SO EXCITING. O_O

Back to my website now! Hopefully, next time I update, it'll be from my pretty, brand sparkling new layout.

Eek!

SO EXCITED! \>o

Woo font embedding!

    Hey, last I heard Toronto still beats New York for multiculturalism! But probably only because it’s smaller, and the sheer number of immigrants in recent years have an easier time outweighing the existing population.

    Still, New York is okay. I guess. If you’re into that sort of thing.

    *is secretly jealous*

    So you’re not moving for ten days… are you still in Austin? Or did I miss a move?

    Still in Austin … for ten more days! Heehee.

    YEAY! (bounces around room)

    Are you ever in NYC? Maybe I’ll finally get to meet you! And you can sign my books. :)

    Rivkah, darling… I’m a guest at the Texas Book Festival. I’m going to be in Austin late Thursday, Friday, and Saturday.

    WHAT?! AH! THIS Thursday, Friday, Saturday?

    What are you doing? Want to catch lunch/dinner with my garcon (http://www.comictool.blogspot.com/) and me?

    Saturday-day is booked up with festival stuff, and then an author reception in the evening; Friday-day I’m being given a tour of the Ranson center, then doing stock signings at Bookpeople and B&N – but Friday evening I have no plans. Dinner is totally doable, and I can draw in your books while we hang out.

    So, they’ve finally done font embedding. It’s about time. Is there a special way to do that through Dreamweaver? I’m so tired of ariel and the like…

    SICK of the core fonts myself. Just make sure you use fonts with permissions allowed. :)
