That takes us to the page about imageshack's quickshot, a program which lets you host screenshots with the press of a button... you need to actually give us a link-specific page in order to access any material you have personally uploaded.

No, I was saying that if he wanted to show a screenshot of what he was talking about, he could go there and download that program.

That actually looks pretty cool. I'd want my NG in Times New Roman now.


So often times it happens, that we live our lives in chains, and we never even know we had the key...

go to control panel and switch to classic view.

get someone to copy there fonts folder for you (or if you have a windows cd copy it from there)

find the fonts folder

find the font that is not working correct(open them up and make sure they look correct) and replace the file OR just replace the intire folder.

this will refresh the fonts in windows and tell you if its a corrupt font in windows or just a problem with internet explorer

you should have 5 different aerial fonts in the folder.

aerial
aerial black
aerial bold
aerial bold italic
aerial italic

and 4 times roman font files

newtimes roman
newtimes roman bold
newtimes roman bold italic
newtimes roman italic

find and replace or add these files to the font folder
