I am building a site and need some help picking a font, this is the design so far, there is still a very long way to go, but I really need to decide on a font now. The one restriction is that the font for the "BURRWOOD Accident Repair Centre" has to be in times new roman, as this is how it is printed on all the company's stationary etc. But I am struggling to find one for the main body of text, at the moment I have a pixel font, but it looks kinda dreadful I think.
Suggestions anyone, please??????

I would use a sans serif to contrast the serif headers.

definitely san serif, if its html then stick to a standard web font but if its flahs i would suggest Gill Sans or Univers.
p.s. work on the grid system

thanks.
Yeah I think a sans is def the way to go, tried the free pixel fonts from fontsforflash, but they looked a bit off. I still havent come to any rock solid decisions about the site yet, so html/flash not yet decided, just throwing a million ideas around at the moment. will see how it evolves. working for a client who is a complete technophobe is a nightmare!!!!! the spec I have been given was "build me a website." thats it. he wants me to write content, take photos, the lot and with no experience in the motor trade I am having to learn as much about his business as possible so I can do the site, and there dont seen to be many car bodyshops on the web to get inspired by. oh well, holiday next week so it can go on the back burner while I get some winter sun, Tenerife here I come!!
