						 <p>If you want to implement a specific design for your site, it might be worthwhile to invest a little time in learning how to write in CSS so that you can manipulate the elements yourself into how you envision it, then we at this site can help with specific questions you might have.</p> <p>A very good resource for learning CSS is <a href="http://www.w3schools.com/css/" target="_blank">W3Schools</a>; it runs through many examples and has a complete list of rules that you can design. If you want to know some stuff about Wikidot's page structure (like how to change the color of the site title), you can visit <a href="http://css.wikidot.com/" target="_blank">The CSS Zone</a>. That site is rather incomplete, but it does have some useful information and references.</p> <p>A great place to practice CSS is the <a href="http://css-playground.wikidot.com/" target="_blank">CSS Playground</a> or the sandbox on the CSS Zone site. On those two locations, you can actually test your CSS code beforehand and see the results immediately.</p> <p>All of these sites can help you design a good-looking theme for your site, and if you have specific questions, like how to add a good image to the header, we can help.</p>

						 <p>One thing you can do is explore <a href="http://themes.wikidot.com" target="_blank">Wikidot's repository of themes</a> created by other Wikidot users and the Wikidot staff. If you find a theme that you like, the instructions to use it are there on the page.</p> <p>If you find a theme that only needs minor adjustments to be perfect, we at the community will be happy to help.</p>

						 <p>@Lofty, I see you are using the <a href="http://themes.wikidot.com/orange-black" target="_blank">orange-black</a> theme from the Themes site. To change this you will need to set up a page on your own site to hold the changes. You might want to read my post at <a href="http://community.wikidot.com/forum/t-422137/need-some-help-with-css#post-1330975" target="_blank">http://community.wikidot.com/forum/t-422137/need-some-help-with-css#post-1330975</a> which explains what you need to do.</p>

						 <p>Since this how to has been written, Wikidot have made some changes, and they now include all of those styles <em>within</em> the <a href="http://www.wikidot.com/common--theme/base/css/style.css">base CSS file</a>, rather than importing them. Scroll towards the bottom of the file (or use your browser's 'find' feature) to locate each of the style sets.</p>

						 <p>I got distracted wondering why MS implements a different standard to everyone else. Are MS being perverse or implementing their Embrace-Extend-Extinguish methodology? It turns out that they are not. In fact they submitted the EOT standard to W3C, and it was good and clean and unencumbered. W3C expected everyone to implement it.</p> <p>There was one feature of the EOT specification that W3C thought was great: it included the font license in a machine-readable form. That would reduce piracy, which the font foundries were wary of, having been burned in the past.</p> <p>That was the very feature that the other browser manufacturers would not accept.</p> <blockquote> <p>imagine somebody implements EOT according to the standard. That means that the software looks in the EOT header for one or more URLs and does a string comparison of those URLs against the URLs of document it is about to render. If one of the URLs matches, the font can be used, otherwise not. Parsing the EOT header is a few dozen lines of code and the comparison itself is two lines.</p> <p>Now imagine somebody else takes that software and removes the two lines that compare URLs. The result is a program that applies fonts in all cases, against the standard and, in some cases, against the licence of the font.</p> <p>If you can find a judge who is willing to claim that those two lines constitute an effective DRM and that removing them is tantamount to circumventing it, then you can claim that the author of the original software is an accomplice, because he provided most of the code.</p> </blockquote> <p>All hail the DMCA.</p> <p>The W3C is now developing a font specification without a machine-readable license.</p> <p>Read the full story <a href="http://www.w3.org/Talks/2010/0313-Fonts-SXSW/">here</a>.</p>

						 <p>Further to my earlier post on getting @font-face to work with Firefox, with the invaluable help of <span class="printuser"><a href="http://www.wikidot.com/user:info/bcammo" >bcammo</a></span> there is a way to do it that works well and is faster to load. At the moment the method is given on my page at <a href="http://www.strathviewconsultants.co.uk/support:font-face" >http://www.strathviewconsultants.co.uk/support:font-face</a> but I will turn it into a how-to shortly</p>
