How to strip out Google fonts?

[MaggzParticipant]

Hi, I cannot believe that there is 300kb of google fonts in this skin. I want them gone. Your  theme immediately triples my download speed because the fonts are about 75 percent of my entire page size. Please advise how I do this.

And all those exothesis things. Happy using standard fonts rather than downloading a heap of specialty font files.

Thanks

Jason

Removing Google fonts will require editing the ‘skin.php’ file. If you are comfortable doing so, remove the lines listed below:

1. Line 100 can be removed
2. Lines 134-147 can be removed

Be sure to read the code briefly before deleting to make sure it references ‘Google fonts’ and you aren’t deleting something else.

After removing these lines, go to your ‘Skin Design’ page and select/change your options and save.

The Google font’s will then be removed from the skin.
