Thats one of the reasons i don't like making sites from scratch, i can come up with fine looking design, the text (fonts) always looks like its page made from MS Front Page template...
e.g.

I cannot seem to chose right font whatever i chose in Dreamweaver out of how many 7 fonts does not look professional.Even fonts in this forum menu looking better than the best font i can find for my site.

Is there some font generation tool or any advice on how i make fonts look better without sacrificing compatibility.
