Fonts

[JHJP]

I'd like to put the clock on my blog but would like to be able to
change the fonts as well as the background colour and the text colour.
Is this possible, please?

[Otto de Voogd]

Background and text color options are available on the generation form
(below the language options):

You can either enter a RGB color code (like #FF0000) or named colors
(like "red").

Setting a different font is not yet possible, but this is one of the
things that is being planned.
Without going into details there are a few issues that need resolving
to implement this fully.
Which font would you like to use?

Dear Otto,

Thank you for that: I've changed the background and text colours: if you
were aiming at putting some but not all font options in - I'm only an
amateur coder so I don't understand what might be involved - the default
fonts in the simple templates used by Blogger would be kind and possibly
reach the largest audience for least time, I suspect, but I'm sorry if that
approach is too simplistic, which I suspect it may be:

Arial
Georgia
Trebuchet
Times
Courier
Verdana

That would give some relatively complementary variety.

Thank you for the time you have devoted to this: it's clear from reading the
blogs and the comments that your efforts are appreciated.

Kind regards

Thanks Julian,

The problem is that different fonts have different sizes, so a larger
font may not fit nicely (and a small font may leave too much empty
space). I have been trying to look for an easy solution, but without
success until now. So indeed another approach is to handle a limited
set fonts (the set you've suggested would be a good starting point).

Thanks for your support,
Otto
