Remember that this is only supported in CSS2 and will not work in older browsers that use CSS1. However, in older browsers it will not cause errors because of the @ symbol in front.

Tha'ts on the site. So which browser are you using?

Love,

Doesn't someone have to download the font before they can see it? So I would try to have the font on a picture since everyone can see those...like a transparent picture...It would look the same. :)
