Do you mean the font of the posts or the headers and names? I’m not the biggest fan of Arial (neither of Helvetica), but it’s ok to read on a screen. What font is it that you used for the podcast logo (except the ONCE, that should be the Futura light), if I may ask?
All of the web say Once Upon a Time is Futura, but it most certainly is not! Compare the C’s. The official OUaT logo has angled “cuts” at the end of the C, but Futura is a straight vertical cut. The Futura N and E are also too wide compared to the OUaT logo.
I originally hunted and tested for hours before I found BonvenoCF for the ONCE podcast logo, which is the closest to the OUaT font as I could get. But that font is disgusting in lowercase, so I am actually using Futura on the website now. Before, I was using Josefin from Google Webfonts.
I apply the web font to only larger headlines.

In her final scene with Rumpel in Skin Deep, she was pleading with him to understand and change his mind. She wasn’t angry at him. She was trying to talk some sense into him. I thought it was quite obvious what the writers were trying to do. I actually thought Belle’s love for Rumpel was quite clear. When we see her again in Dreamy, she’s going on and on about true love and how valuable it is. She was obviously talking about Rumpel. She was hurt and still missed Rumpel. That was made abundantly clear.
I agree. Belle was obviously still in love with Rumpel when we saw her again in “Dreamy.” And the last scene between her and Rumpel in “Skin Deep” was about her trying to get Rumpel to review his actions. She was telling him to stop being a coward and face life. She was pleading with him. She wasn’t angry. That was evident by the fondness in which she spoke of him in “Dreamy.”
And like others have said, I wasn’t surprised at all by Belle’s reaction to Mr. Gold in the finale. They’re true love, so of course she’s going to be happy to see him. True love doesn’t just fade away. So actually, her rejecting Rumpel would have been out of character and would have screwed with the continuity of the show’s mythology. True love is true love. There are various different types of true love, but it’s love nonetheless. And no one has been able to stay away from their true love. There have been characters on this show who have resorted to killing because of the loss of their true love (Regina). So, of course Belle was going to be happy to see him again.
The transparent background (or gray, if you’re on an old-fashioned browser) is back.
I discovered our official ONCE font is available on TypeKit, so I switched from Google Web Fonts to TypeKit. I just have to monitor my bandwidth usage with them. 😛
UPDATE: Heh. I say that, and then I start not liking our ONCE podcast font for use anywhere except in the logo. I’m switching to a similar font.
Hi, Kylie! Great to have you with us! Your name will cause a lot of ladies to mourn, “Don’t say his name unless you bring him back.” 🙂
