Default New Fonts

Okay...

I swear I searched here and the last two times I've checked the vBulletin manuel I haven't been able to get on...

So, I will embarass myself here and ask, "how do you load new fonts onto vBulletin for use on your forum?"

You mean upload the fonts via ftp and then make it so that you can use that font?

Yep... except I didn't realize you needed to upload them via ftp, although that makes a lot of sense (thank god)

Not sure if this is what you mean, but try this:
Admincp >> Styles & Templates >> All Style Options >> Toolbar Menu Options

okay with you that far... I see the list of fonts available right now. What do I do to load another font?

Just add whatever fonts you want. However, users will only be able to see these fonts if they have them on their computer.

Actually this is not completely true ;) There is a way to do this with javascript but it is complicated. I'll see if I can find the instructions and post them here for you

Complicated means out of my league! Hasn't stopped me yet, though! Thanks.

THIS link will explain Dynamic Text Replacement. This would be an incredible hack to have available. Image having a special font just for your quotes Members of your forum wouldn't have to have this font loaded on their computers, as it would come directly from your forum. Cool beans ;)
