🦋 Font query

I'm interested in sweetening up the look of this blog by changing the fonts used, and wonder if anybody reading has advice about what fonts to use. Here is what I'd like to do:

  • The three sections of the blog -- left sidebar, body, and right sidebar -- should be distinguished from each other. My thinking was that the left sidebar should be a slightly smaller font size, and maybe the right also, and possibly a different named font. But I don't have a designer's eye of what named font looks good where.
  • The headers should be a different font from the text, I was thinking they should be sans-serif.

That's pretty much it; I will check what wordpress stylesheets look like, since I tend to really like their presentation. I need to learn how to use css, which seems pretty easy but which I have been resisting up until now. Anyone got advice for me?


Update: Hmm... well that's something anyway. Plagiarized some styles from wordpress, added a couple of my own. Still not totally sure how this thing works.
