Using fancy font for your post title

Hallo! Wie geht es dir?  Been busy with work without realising it has been two days! I have been doing a blog makeover yesterday and completed book illo #8 previously. Now doing illo #9.

Anyway, let’s get geeky today. Do you want to put a fancy font to your wordpress blog? If you are a proud self-hosted wordpress blogger, good. Here’s how:

1. Download this plugin: Ultimate Google Fonts.Ultimate Google Font

2. Unzip and upload the plugin to your wp-content\plugins directory.

3. Activate the plugin.

4. Go to Settings and look for Ultimate Google Fonts. Click.

5. Choose your fonts. Check the radio box and Save Changes.

6. Type in your CSS code in the CSS box and Save Changes.

7. Voila! You have a new font.

Example of the code, can be like below:

.post h2 a{
font-family:'thefontname',serif;
color: #333333;
size: 30px;
}

Change the size and color value to suit your liking. The font-family code is located at the end of the font you chose, you can just copy and paste in the CSS box.

For blogspot blogger:

1. Check Google web fonts

2. Choose the font you like.

3. Click Use-this-Font tab.

4. Copy the code and put it in the <head> of your html. Click Design on your Blogger dashboard and choose Edit HTML.

5. Don’t forget to copy the CSS code and paste it in your html…anywhere under #post h2 or h3 or something similar.
