When it comes to font-family on the web, you're typically stuck with about 26 core web fonts. Out of the 26, five are commonly used across the web, leaving us with one homogeneous - and often boooring - sea of sites. Lucky for you, there are a number of ways you can now add your own fonts, using @font-face, Flash, JavaScript and Google Fonts.

Well i have searched time and time again to find the answer only to end up more frustrated and confused. I have finally found a decent and easy solution(kinda). The solution is MetaMod. This extremely versatile module can really help you out when i comes to making dynamic time and ACL control over your modules. This tutorial is about one of those things that you always think you have figured out and then you realize you just spent 2 hours chasing the wrong thing. Ring any bells? I know because I have spent hours trying to find a quality solution to this problem.
