"Doodling" Skin Chat
Doodling is a skin design where I am attempting to use almost no images and recreate a cute message board design I saw when browsing the Wayback Machine for old Runboard communities which have passed away.
I thought I could do the skin with zero graphics but I cannot get @font-face to work for me (I was going to use it on the skins banner). After trying for a couple of hours, I ditched that idea and created a b&w picture for the logo.

Re: "Doodling" Skin Chat
What was the exact code you were trying to use with @font-face? Did you have it uploaded to your website, or were you trying to use something that was uploaded elsewhere? I added a Google font to a couple of the headings in your Doodling skin just now, and it worked fine.

@font-face {
font-family: 'camdenregular';
src: url('http://rbbt.net/camden-webfont.woff2') format('woff2'),
url('http://rbbt.net/camden-webfont.woff') format('woff');
}
The font is what I used to create the banner in my graphics editor (I have it uploaded as a ttf file as well).

I did not see the @font-face declaration but I love the font you used for the headings. I may try that again using your coding for the banner.

Re: "Doodling" Skin Chat
When I visited your woff2 and woff links, all I saw was jibberish in my browser. When I visited the ttf URL that you didn't include there, it gave me the option to view or save the font, and I was able to see it fine. I'm not familiar with woff and woff2 formats, but maybe they're not compatible with Firefox. Did you try the ttf format with that code?
