Community Rules

This comm is open to anyone to post codes, layouts, resources, tutorials, and requests for help and content. Of course, we do have some rules, so please read through them before jumping in; thank you!

Treat others the way you'd like to be treated. This is not a drama comm, and we expect you guys to be awesome and stay civil. If a situation gets out of hand, please contact a mod, and leave comments intact so we can accurately handle the situation.

Please tag your posts and check out the tagging guide if you have any questions!

■ Very long posts or posts formatted with your own div styling for organization should be behind a cut to save people's f-lists.

Work safe above the cut, please!

■ If posting codes, guides, etc. absolutely do not post content that you did not make. That's stealing, and it's super uncool, bro! If you are posting expanded/edited codes made by yourself using another user's coding as well, please be sure you have their permission (You do not need direct permission if they allow edits to be re-posted in their blanket rules.)
■ Do not post tutorials/links to tutorials that show people how to steal codes from other users. Again: Stealing. Not cool.
When asking for help with something, please check the help tags (help: coding, help: graphics, help: icons, help: layouts, help: other) first to see if your question has already been posted and answered to avoid duplicates.

We do not allow game ads to be posted on this comm since there are so many communities specifically for that already; if you're pimping a game as an addition to a regular post, that's fine. (OK: You post an RP code and mention in the post, oh hey, also I'm running this game! NOT OK: Posts dedicated to game promo.)

We do allow other types of community promos if they are related to RP (icon comms, other types of resource comms, etc.) Just shoot us a comment in our dropbox beforehand and we'll let you know if it's cool to post!

HELLO I AM BACK AND I MAY HAVE THE ANSWER NOW! If you don't have it already, haha.

@font-face{font-family:FONTNAME;src:url(DROPBOXURL);}

I think the key here is to use Dropbox. I should have thought of this before since sometimes I do use it to host non-font things for IJ, but it never crossed my mind (because when I first learned how to use new fonts in journals back in like 2011 no one had a fix for this issue other than "use Google Fonts.")

Now here's where it gets fun; this is what I do when I need specific file extensions from my Dropbox files (ie. for CSS etc.)

So you create and grab your Share Link, right? Only it doesn't work. No problem! You just need two tiny changes:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/randomstring/filename.zip?dl=0

Changes to:

https://dl.dropbox.com/s/randomstring/filename.zip

And that is the URL you put into your font import string for the CSS. After that the standard @font-face should (fingers crossed!) work!
