MilkHub Fonts

For a couple of days now I've been trying to figure out why MilkHub looks strange on whitetop, so today I decided to get to the bottom of it. The fonts in the menu, headings and through most of the sidebar were coming out very bold as you can see here:

MilkHub - Segoe UI

After much digging around and disabling fonts in style sheetheet I decided to check what fonts I have installed. I had installed the "Segoe UI" font (Windows Vista's default) after one of my friends was telling me how good it was and it seems that on a Mac it doesn't look quite so good. I disabled the font on my computer and everything's looking nice again.

I've had a play with the Segoe fonts that you can find with a simple google search and found that "Segoe" gives the same results as Segoe UI did, "Segoe Light" is a little too light and not very well spaced. The best Segoe I could find was "Segoe Semibold" but the letters still look a little too close together for my liking so I think I'm just going to stick with the old faithful Verdana as my next backup.
