I was wondering if we could use the special Harry Potter font that Paul used for the
Message Archives for the title of each FAQ. Is that easy enough to do?
That would be cool I think.

It took me a while since I had a colored background.  A colored background required a transparent GIF.  I had never made a transparent GIF before.  If you choose to use a white background, things are much easier.  (The reason a GIF is needed is this font isn't a standard Internet font so it must be a graphic.  I used a GIF graphic.)

Since I'm not doing any FAQ writing, I'd be glad to help out in this area.  Let me know.

But to answer your question: it isn't hard with the right tools.  I used Paint Shop Pro, but I'm sure someone on the FAQ knows of other programs that will do the trick.  I don't know if it is possible to make the graphic using free Microsoft tools.
