Re: Proportional Fonts - AOL macro art

Re: Proportional Fonts - AOL macro art

umm...
Thanks for everyone feedbacks.

It looks like there are all sort of problems with my page when 
displaying in other Internet browsers except MS IE.
I guess a good solution to fix this is to turn these "Proportional 
Fonts - AOL macro art" into image (ex. jpg, png) to ensure everyone 
can see it correctly.

It might not be the best solution, but at least it will ensure 
everyone to see what it is suppose to be.

Any thoughts?
