You bet. Changing the font of your MySpace URL box is done using CSS (Cascade StyleSheets). Unlike other texts in your profile, which you modify using the .text class, in this case you’ll need to use the div element. Proceed as following:

• Enter the following code in your About Me section:

<style>
div {font-family: Calibri,Verdana, Arial;}
</style>

• Note that you are allowed to specify pretty much every font you want in the font-family property. I have chosen Calibri, which is a new Vista fonts for Windows XP.
• Hit Preview Profile and if satisfied with the results hit Save All changes.
