Dilemma with fonts for website. My sites look like newsbie made them...

[MrVon]

Thats one of the reasons i don't like making sites from scratch, i can come up with fine looking design, the text (fonts) always looks like its page made from MS Front Page template...
e.g.

I cannot seem to chose right font whatever i chose in Dreamweaver out of how many 7 fonts does not look professional.Even fonts in this forum menu looking better than the best font i can find for my site.

Is there some font generation tool or any advice on how i make fonts look better without sacrificing compatibility.Dilemma with fonts for website. My sites look like newsbie made them...

My best advice would be to just take note of what fonts other websites are using. The example you have there looks fine if it's the font being used for page content (like an article). The trick is to use other fonts for the design (headers, logos, etc) that mesh well with the overall design of the site.

You can also Google "typography" for some info on how to use type efficiently.
