Default "Site best viewed with" - 02-18-2005 , 11:19 AM

No, I'm not ranting about the falling snowflake effect (they've kept
the numbers down - it's almost cute).

Scroll down though and you'll find the message, "This site is best
viewed with Morpheus, Papyrus, Dali & Monotype Corsiva fonts
installed."

Requesting browsers is one thing, but now we're expected to go and
install fonts to view it ? What are these people thinking ?

Cut them some slack! Ok their site might break a few rules, buts it worth
installing the extra fonts...

Let's face it - where else could we buy the Cauldron of Rebirth???

If Morpheus & Papyrus fonts enable me to begin my 'inspiration journey',
'where the powers of inspiration and creativity flow freely', then so be it.
