    Question for those of you with a windows computer (website related)

    Hey guys, I was in the process of revamping my website and checked it at work today on a windows machine through firefox. I noticed the main font I used on it was coming up very strange and pixilated. It was readable, but ugly. If anyone who uses windows could take a look at the following link and let me know if there are any fonts on there that show up well (and they like) or show up badly (broken, pixilated, unable to read, etc). PLEASE let me know.

    http://threenotegeckos.com/test.html

    You can view the regular website without the /test.html at the end but its still being updated. I thought this was a bigger issue to fix than updating the collection page.

    You can copy and paste this:

    Computer type:
    Internet browser:
    Broken fonts:
    Appealing fonts:

    Thanks everyone!

    Computer type: Windows 7
    Internet browser: Firefox
    Broken fonts: None
    Appealing fonts: First, second, third, and the other fonts similar to that. Also like 9

    Computer type: Windows 7
    Internet browser: Google Chrome
    Broken fonts: none
    Appealing fonts: Same

    Computer type: Windows 7
    Internet browser: Internet Explorer
    Broken fonts: none
    Appealing fonts: Same!

    All of my browsers show up the same. All fonts work. I am personally not a fan of the lettering that is too thin, but that is my own preference. Nothing looks broken.

    I think part of my problem is that the machine at work is OLD and has really low resolution which is what was messing it up. It just made it super hard for me to read.

    Thank you for checking a bunch for me though, i appreciate it A LOT.

    Looks great on Firefox

    EDIT: In my opinion the menu links would look better if you changed the style to no underline. Of course it's a matter of personal preference though. Other than that everything looks incredible. Nice work!
