    I’ve managed to learn alot about CSS through the forums and through Firefox’s add-on, Firebug, and I’ve done rather well… however, for the life of me I can’t seem to change the font to the widgets SEPARATELY than the rest of the blog. I’m trying to use the font in the new option, ‘Typekits’, but will settle on any change at this point. I’ve changed widget titles, borders, padding, etc., but can’t seem to now change the font and spacing to, for example, the “A little bit about me’ widget – Gravatar. Any help would be appreciated! Thank you! (Also, if anyone can figure out how to give the ‘Vodpod’ widget more padding, I’d owe you big time! Right now it’s way too close to its above widget)

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

    There has been no official announcement from wordpress.COM about TypeKit and there doesn’t appear to be any support documentation. I have yet to hear from any volunteer experienced in working with CSS here that widgets can be edited as you indicate. You will have to wait until one of the volunteers who help with CSS finds your thread and posts to it.

    As for adding some space above the vodpod widget, try inserting an empty text wiget or a blank rss widget. Without a title like other widgets vodpod does look squashed up to close to the one above it.

    I’ll try that, thanks.

    Any suggestions on how I can change the font within the widgets themselves? Thanks.

    Hmmm, I don’t know anything about CSS, and you were asking about ‘Typekits’ and that feature does not seem to be implemented yet.

    I know something about editing fonts in text widgets with plain html, (font family, size, color and so on)
    but without CSS that won’t apply to your widgets like “WHAT INTERESTS YOU?” or “MY PAGES” “MY TAG CLOUD” … sorry.
