Forum:Font suggestions

A few months ago, I download the Padauk font to my computer to correctly display Burmese characters. As well as supporting Burmese, it can also be used to display Latin letters. Today, I created a userbox on one of my wikis for users who contribute using Internet Explorer that looks kind of like this:

I looked through my list of fonts to find one that displayed a lowercase "e" similar to the logo of Internet Explorer. The Padauk font was definitely the best one I could find, but I was unsure whether or not it would display correctly on computers that do not have the font downloaded. To users who do not have the font, does the "e" on the userbox above look similar in shape to the ? If not, are there any other fonts that I could use instead? 23:07, August 16, 2011 (UTC)
 * Why don't you just use the logo? - 23:11, August 16, 2011 (UTC)


 * (edit conflict) Why not just use the image itself?

 * I am okay with using fair use images on my wiki, but I try not to use them on templates. 23:20, August 16, 2011 (UTC)


 * This is what it looks like to me. On top is the font padauk and on the bottom the default font.




 * Using an image should be fine so long as it's locked, what with vandals and all. - 00:55, August 17, 2011 (UTC)

The default font looks closer to the IE icon, I think.
