  Is there a way to change my blog’s title font?
  Click on my name or go to http://www.aaroncohenphotography.wordpress.com to see for yourself. Is there a way I can make my title (“Aaron Cohen Photography”) different? I don’t want it in Arial or whatever it’s in now.
  Thank you.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  a) You can modify it if you have the Custom Design upgrade.

  b) You can create a new version of your header image, with the blog title and tagline on it, upload this version, and select Display Text: No.

  These are 3 ways to change fonts on WordPress.com blogs.

  (1) Changing font families, colors and size in text in posts or pages either post by post or page by page by coding into the HTML editor. http://en.support.wordpress.com/editors/font-size-color/

  (2) Changing font colors in text in posts or pages either post by post or page by page using the #4 icon (Select text color – change the text color) in Row 2 the Visual editor. http://en.support.wordpress.com/visual-editor/#row-2

  (3) Changing all font families, colors and sizes throughout the whole blog by purchasing an annually renewable Custom Design upgrade and using Typekit Fonts with Staff support. http://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-design/

  Note: Any font changes to font families, colors and size in the blog title, tagline, post titles, page titles, categories and tags, widget headings, comments, and links cannot be done without CSS editing.

  @TT: 1 and 2 are irrelevant. And your “Note” is inaccurate: some themes allow you to change the color of the blog title in Appearance > Header, some themes allow you to change the link color in Appearance > Theme Options, and many themes allow you to hide the actual blog title (as you know, and as I suggested above).

  SIGH … yes.

  Two thirds of those themes also include the [custom header image option] to “Hide Text”, i.e. exclude the regular blog title and tagline from showing in the header. This is useful when you want to incorporate the blog title and the tagline in the design of the image itself.

  You add the image in Appearance > Header, or in Appearance > Themes > Header (the tab shows only when you have loaded a theme that supports this option … read the whole article here > http://wpbtips.wordpress.com/2009/03/24/header-images/
