How do I get my fonts to look like this?

fontsnthings.com

That's a site you can download fonts from, but I want to know how to make my fonts look exactly like theirs with color and all that. My font's are just black and white when I download them. Any graphic artists wanna help me out?

You use a graphics program like Print Shop or Photoshop... create the text with the new font and select the color...

fonts ARE black and white, the editing program is what actually gives it color, effects, etc... Read some tutorials.... search for "basic graphic design" or read the help file in your editing program.

Heh, I know that. I mean how do they make it like two different colors and such?

you'll need a more advanced editor like photoshop. Your text should appear as a seperate layer. Grab your wand tool, select the empty area. Now go select >> inverse and your text should be selected. Now just use the gradient tool or whatever you want...

np, frankly the best way to teach yourself graphic design is just play, play, play
