Thanks for the info the font certainly worked well and helps.
On the button side I understand where you are coming from but it does not really fall inline with my consistent concept. If you take a look at the screen shot there are a number of buttons on the page but they have a few different colour schemes and 2 are in bold.
I try to have a consistent look in my websites so for example all buttons are the same colour and the hover the same colour, I feel this makes it easier for the user to identify what is clickable.
So I would like to have all buttons background: #663399 and color: #ffffff and the hover for all buttons #006600.
Hope this makes sense.
