using fonts in your theme - tutorial
First i downloaded the font ‘From Where You Are’ from here.
Second, i moved the file into a new folder on my computer.
Third, i followed this tutorial post to use the font in my theme.
I’ll talk you through the process with some screenshots:
Went to this site and uploaded my file- when uploaded, DON’T CLOSE WINDOW, otherwise you will lose the URL.
Go to Classic Customisation + Use Custom HTML
Pasted the following code under <style type=”text/css”> (doesn’t matter where, as long as it is above </style> & quick tip: use Ctrl + F to find tags quicker!):
@font-face {font-family:FONTNAME; src: url(URL) format(“truetype”);
Replace the URL bit with the URL of your uploaded file.
Also paste after the last ; THIS:
font-weight: normal; font-style: normal;
It’s so that the font (well should) change according to styles like bold & italic.
Change FONTNAME to the font name or anything you like, like ‘Grapes’ or ‘Woof’ if you like.
To use that font, replace FONTNAME with the name you put in the previous step. So for example sake, fromwhereyouare:
All theme codes are different, but if you want to use the Custom Font for something, just find ‘font-family’ and replace it with the following:
font-family:”FONTNAME” (eg) font-family: “fromwhereyouare”
You may need to change the speech marks, if you find that it’s no working
I hope this helps! Please do ask if something is unclear and my explaining sucks somewhere, i’ll be very happy to help you! :D
The tutorial post also tells you how to just make the description font different, so it’s worth checking out too, if you do not wish to go through the coding. <3
Replacements for 'Cool Story, Bro'

tips for drawing and creating art
“How do I improve my art work?” is one of the most asked questions in art related forums, mainly regarding drawing and painting in any media. Because the question is recurring so often, I wrote the following tips that I still copy-paste in various threads.
You can apply these universal strategies not just to traditional and digital painting media, but most of them even to photography and collage. - Look at pictures by artists you admire, and try to figure out things. How do they handle light and color? What edges are sharp, and what edges are soft? Why do they use that particular color there? What technique did they use? How did they work? The more you look at work of others, the more different kinds of styles and techniques you will see. - Learn from the masters. Copy works you adore. Not for imitating the artist or showcasing your copy, but for the sake of learning. Don’t be shy, ask your favorite artist everything you want to know, such as “What paper do you draw on?”, or “How do you go about painting a picture, do you start with a sketch?”, etc. But be specific, don’t ask “how can I paint like that?”. And check the artist’s website, chances are they already have tutorials, a FAQ or step-by-step tutorials there. - Challenge yourself. Never used a particular medium? Then buy it, no matter how poor you are, and try it out. Never drawn a still life? Do it. Never used that particular color scheme? Give it a try. At a certain point, when you are afraid of repeating yourself, you are on the right track to improve. - Use reference. If you aim for realism, you can’t paint most things straight from your imagination. The old masters always made preliminary studies of life models, and did most paintings from life models too. For example, if you are unsure how to paint a head with the light source from below, look up a photo, or take it yourself, or have someone pose for it. It is worth every effort! Stock photos from deviantartists can be a valuable resource also and provide inspiration. - Draw from life. It’s probably the most valuable practice that there is. Sign up for a life drawing class so that you’ll be actually “forced” to do it. Believe me, it works wonders. As for studying anatomy from books about figure drawing (Loomis, Bammes, etc.) a good exercise is to copy the body parts and figures in there and then trying to draw the same from your mind to see how much you remembered. - Look up tutorials. Browse through the tutorial section and study the many different ways and media of the different artists. Also visit the websites of the great artists here - many have tutorials up there. - Collect pictures. On my harddisk, I have different folders of fantastic art. They are very inspiring to browse through and can give you new ideas in terms of technique. Whenever I feel uninspired, I look through my folders. The images I’ve collected over time, mainly from Cgtalk.com, Deviantart, Epilogue, Artrenewal.org and many other websites.
