My desktop

Hi, i just love using Ubuntu especially when i get compiz-fusion to work. I looks way better than Ms Windows. I have three Linux -virgins waiting for me to teach them how to use linux (Ubuntu) because they prefer the look of my customized Ubuntu better that what they can get in Windows. just check out my desktop……

Fonts- Ubuntu

Since i upgraded my Ubuntu to 8.4 and then 8.10, i have been having trouble installing my Windows fonts in ubuntu. i do some design work every now and then. i search for a solution for a very long time. what i normally do is copy the fonts and paste them in the .fonts folder in my home directory. but with these versions (8.04 adn 8.10) i could not find the .fonts folder. i had to install fontypython to get the .fonts folder to be created.

then a couple of weeks ago, i just tried something different. I copied my fonts folder from Windows into my home directory in Ubuntu. Then i changed the file name to .fonts and it worked . hipeey! now i get to use any Windows font i want in Ubuntu.
