Any ideas (must be freeware) please chime in.

How about the Akbar font?

I also am not keen on the font and have changed it to Arial. I'm using MePo Green wide, a couple of comments on that:

The MePo icons on HOME look a bit on the small side, they look lost
MyRecordedTV does something strange with the background, it's like it displays a small background and so the right side and bottom of the screen are black, see the screenshot.

Great work though Glenn, I see many people using these skins.

i see what you mean about the recorded TV page. i haven't touched the code for this page at all so I can't tell what's going wrong. Will look into it soon. As for the font. I typed a block of copy with it and find it as hard to read ad identity. i think handwritten fonts may be out.

MePo, meet Akbar. Akbar, this is MePo. Let's see how the freindship pans out.

Akbar is not bad and is funky enough.

Hi all!
I've been following this thread and I think that the skin looks great. Regarding the font I agree that a change would be good, not so much because of legibility but the Identity font did not support the "å, ä and ö" characters (these appeared in Arial). So if you could find a font that supports this I think you would please Scandinavian and other users with more than 26 letters in their alphabet.

More than 26 characters in your alphabet! How do you remember them all

 

[Bossa72]

Well for starters you get reminded everytime someone foreign pronounce them wrong...

I am at work right now, but I'll see if I can find some time to do a bit of font-searching myself within the next few days and come up with some suggestions. I am new to this but there should be at least some nice fonts with all the proper characthers.
