Hi,

I have figured out things such as how to change the color or change the size. But, I want to change the gradient and outline the letters to give my title a more professional look. Can anyone help!?

Thanks


**the h1 and h2 differently

    Easy way - Photoshop
    Mediocre way - CSS
    Complex way - cufon font replacement

    Guys I'm going to have to disagree with pretty much every response in this thread. Collabo is the only one that has suggested a decent approach. More specifically, I would avoid Cufon and rather use Google Web Fonts as it tends to have faster load times and is easier for newbies. So let's say you wanted your h1 and h2 tags to be rendered in one of the fonts, for this example I'll use "Original Surfer".

    1. Declare the font for use in your HTML file by adding this line to the <head> section of your HTML:

    Code:
    <link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Original+Surfer' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>
    2. In the CSS for your site, use the font. For example, you can override the h1 font settings by adding this to your CSS:

    Code:
    h1 {font-family: 'Original Surfer', cursive;}
    Done!
