Hey guys,

So while at work the other day my boss' daughter mentioned to me that she didn't like the font I used for the page headings. She didn't really know how to explain it, but she just thought it was plain. For me, information like this is GOLD! I had never even given it a second thought, and I certainly don't have the eyes of a young woman to see certain things in. After mentioning it to me went through some fonts and I had her pick out a few she thought were nice.

Now it's time to put the fonts to the real world test... or should I say "squeeze"?! orange.gif

Here are the candidates...

Font#1:


Font #2:


Font #3:


Font#4

You are also missing an "r" in the Three in the first and last two screenshot, but ... I won't tell secret.gif

I voted for the third one, it looks classic and modern at the same time.

I went with number one, I like how it looks and how the first letter of each word is bold.
