How can I put my fonts in two colors? Basically what I want is each letter should be made up of two colors, white bordered with black. Any ideas or leads will be useful.

It can be done with HTML using tables. Basic code: substitute [/b] for [b]( and ) (table background=color bordercolor=black border=1) (tr) (td)(font color=white)A(/font)(/td) (td)(font color=white)B(/font)(/td) (td)(font color=white)C(/font)(/td) (td)(font color=white)D(/font)(/td) (td)(font color=white)E(/font)(/td) (/tr) (/table) Please note this is very basic table code. I have left out attributes such as cellspacing, cellpadding, etc.

It will not working. It creates the borders of the table as black, not the borders of the characters.

Oops! I'm sorry, AniruS. I misunderstood you. Like everyone has already advised, you would have to create the letters as an image file. Do you have a link to a page with a sample of what you want?

I think this is not possible in HTML with standard fonts. You could use an outline font but then you would have to be sure that everyone who viewed your page had that font installed. The best way (for a web page) is to create the text you want as a graphic and to use that. You can do this in most of the better graphics editors (Gimp and Paint.net are free ones which should be able to do it) or you could do it in MS Word as TextArt and then export that as a GIF or WMF file.

The text that I want to use is kind of realtime generated and therefore using graphics is not an option.

Hi! You should use gradients. Well you can do it in Adobe Photoshop. First create a text using Text Tool then colored them using Gradient Tool. You will then have a two colored or even more than two colored font. Have a nice day! Happy myLotting!
