This will make the game even
more beautiful. This is,
however, can greatly increase
the size of skin and can
cause problems with some of
the characters in the chat
(squares!

). If possible, I
would like to replace these
"squares" are loaded from a
standard skin's font.

ok so i got kirby to help me understand this. while it is a kinda interesting idea, i don't really see any benefit in this. the default font is fine. or else i predict a lot of people using webdings >_>

And why of all the must-
benefit for themselves? Do
not forget about the
aesthetics. It just makes the
game more beautiful. After
all, the game has support for
skins and added it there in the
first place, to make the game
more varied and beautiful, but
not for the fact that people
do hit300.png transparent. In
this case, all the same. Font
support is just a "for beauty".

I do think that this is interesting, but I don't find much fonts that actually will make the game better visually and let the text areas readable without being ugly as hell, excluding standard fonts such as Segoe UI (And all UIs), Meiryo, MS Gothic or Arial.

Verdana is clear enough. If you see squares instead of the correct language, you've got your language packs installed incorrectly.
