Fun with Fonts

Fun with Fonts

Good afternoon fellow Forumites. Here's a spoiler alert for this thread: It is going to be really really really boooooooring. I want to experiment with different fonts. For some bizarre reason, which I'm sure clever people like @NikNik understand, when I make a post look exactly how I want it to look using IE, it ends up looking nothing like what I want it to look in Chrome. Hence I want to play around with font sizes and styles to try and figure out the best ones to use. That's it. That is all this thread is going to be about. Yep, definitely nothing interesting to see here.

{Phoenix_Rising now sits back and waits for some cheeky Forumite to start making smart comments on this thread, thereby somehow turning a completely innocuous thread into something ridiculous - glares particularly at @Queenie @Bunniekins @Zoe7}.

Re: Fun with Fonts

@CheerBear You found the guy!!!!!!

See @Former-Member, this thread is really very serious. That poor guy was missing somewhere in CheerBear's phone, and it's only thanks to this thread that she was able to find him!

@CheerBear It was @Catcakes who brought up the topic of the font of knowledge.

Re: Fun with Fonts

Ughhhhhhhh

I think I need to offer a reward to anyone who can find the magic two character code to the smileylol guy. Baby goats? Everyone liked them (@phoenix_rising had them up for grabs in the yoga thread one week @Catcakes) 🙂

I will find my guy one day...

Hey @Former-Member,

I trust that you are fluent in speaking wingdingish and therefore can moderate this post. I think being fluent in wingdingish should be a requirement for all moderators just in case someone chose to post something inappropriate in wingdingish.

Yours sincerely,

Phoenix_Rising.

Re: Fun with Fonts

I certainly don’t want to miss an opportunity to use the word chortle...(. sounds a bit kinky to me)
But.... I chortled when @CheerBear said she could see the garden too and @Queenie
chortling and @Bunniekins too so well done @Phoenix_Rising for stimulating such a chorus of chortles 🎟🎹🤹🏿‍♂️🎭🎯

Re: Fun with Fonts

Do I have someone to hunt for the guy with now?!!!! Yay @Former-Member 😄 But nope 😞 I think that's smileysurprised guy.

Did you type that in Wingdingish @Phoenix_Rising? It came up in two different fonts on the app.

Chortle is a fabulous word @Catcakes! A chorus of chortles is an awesomely catchy phrase 😄

Re: Fun with Fonts

@Catcakes for some reason, the idea that I have stimulated chortles seems mildly alarming to me. Really, how this thread descended into a stimulation of chortles, when all I was doing was figuring out what different sized fonts look like across different platforms, is beyond me.

Re: Fun with Fonts

What the heck is going on here? I have some Forumites chortling and other Forumites hunting for @CheerBear's guy. This was supposed to be a very boring uneventful thread.

@CheerBear Yes, I wrote most of that post in windingish but started and ended it in english.
