Hi - I have just recently installed this fantastic skin for the first time and I'm having a bit of a newbie problem with regards to fonts.
Has anyone any idea why my fonts are not the same as the screenshots in the gallery for this skin - please see the 2 comparison images. The first is a screenshot of moving pictures in my installation and the second is taken straight from the gallery for this skin.

Is there a font I need to install?

I've searched the forums for ages and have tried running through the installation again, selecting large fonts.

Any help would be appreciated and apologies for a total newbie question!

Thanks

    I cant understand why your fonts would look like that unless they were not installed correctly...first time this problem has been reported. Can you check your C:\Windows\Fonts directory for:

    Fluid Body Caps
    Fluid
    Fluid Title Caps

    They're not there - from reading the forums I actually thought I was looking for fonts called Fluid before posting on the forum. Let me uninstall, delete the cache and re-install the skin and will post back in a few minutes. Thanks

    Re-installed and still no sign of the fonts - I even re-downloaded the skin (1.3.0) before installing again.

    Is there somewhere I can download these fonts from separately? Everything else seems to be working fine. Thanks

    I have posted the fonts here but we may be looking at problem with the installer, for now these we get you going and I will run some tests this evening on a clean system.

    Thanks

    That sorted it - cheers. And wow, wow, wow what an amazing skin! And to think I didn't bother changing from xface for the last couple of years!:D

    Strangely enough I have a laptop with mediaportal client installed on it and I installed this skin and the fonts were installed fine. Both machines are windows 7 x86. If you want me to post any logs from the problem machine then let me know if I can be of any help.

    Keep up the great work!


    ...oh and the only thing I did differently on the other machine was that I used all the default installation options for the skin.
