Our post font is just one of the many things we use to represent our character in the Wizarding World of Gaia. Whether we choose to bold, italicize, size down, or use the color fuchsia - the way we shape our post font gives our fellow roleplayers a closer look through another perspective at who our character is.

Might change Arthur's font to crimson.

I have a hard time keeping up with all of my characters' fonts. xp

I don't know why everyone uses the smaller fonts, i always keep mine just normal size... easier to read for me, is the main reason. I mean, I know you can control+ to make types bigger on most computers... well, anyhow.

I usually just try and figure what the characters favorite color is, then just use that. Like just regular green or Voldemort, obvious, and dark red for Fenrir because it's like BLOOD. D< Oh and I changed Josh to orange because yellow is hard to read and obnoxious.

But now I see all those fabulous colors I want to start typing my Cillian posts in that darkslategrey color. Oooh, I like that color a lot. :3

So fonts:

Voldemort
Fenrir
Cillian

The colours I pick definte my character's personality. biggrin Bright, cute pictures like purple or pink indicate bubbly cute characters, grey is for the calm ones. Orange/red is for volatile ones. (Yes, even Harry) .....green is usually for the grumpy/grouchy types. xD

But yeah, I pick ones that are different, I don't like to have the same font for more than one character, and I pick their favourite colour too sometimes.

And the personality thing doesn't always apply. :3

I use smaller font because it's easier for me to read. I usually have to copy/paste fanfiction into a word document and size it down to read it. Xx;

OCD perhaps.

Changing Lockhart's font to darkmagenta, and Poppy's to bolded maroon.

Cool. heart Love the colors, and the art. whee And it's awesome that you can express what you're listening/feeling as well, without it being one of those huge "where is the actual post?" walls some kids have started doing. Yours is small and neat. whee heart

Yeah, I just messed around with it for like 30 minutes to get it to look right and not too cluttered. I had tons of links at first, but it's better now. :3

I'm currently compiling all of the symbols you can use on Gaia. It's taking a long time because I have to sort through multiple lists of them, and try to squint to see if any of them are repeats. XD

Though many people find it annoying, I like using symbols in thread titles XP It makes them a little more unique... and in the case of the WCF, I feel it's a cute way to separate threads, and let them have a bit of an identity other than a title.

My favorite color in the entire world is SAFETY ORAAANNNGGGEE because it's amazing. I have its hex code memorized. XD

I think symbols are good, to an extent. Sometimes it can get REALLY annoying if the symbols are raped. XD

You know, I constantly return to this thread for font colors, and never post in it.

I REALLY need to make a list of all my characters' font colors. >w<
