RE: Fonts
MSN Messenger uses the fonts that are in your computer (like any other program). You can download fonts from 1001FreeFonts.com.

Note that your contacts won't see your font if they don't have it. They will see a common font (such as MS Sans Seriff, I think).

RE: Fonts
The fonts have to be placed in the fonts folder in Windows (usually C:\Windows\Fonts).

You might need to restart MSN Messenger for it to list them. I'm not sure you need to do anything else.

I haven't downloaded fonts lately, though. Maybe someone with more experience in this issue might be of better help.

Your contacts won't be able to see your font if they don't have it installed in their machines.
