    It's never a good idea to stray from the standard cross OS browser fonts.

    If you want plain text, stick with web-safe fonts. You can use a picture to display any other font instead (for logo, text effects...). In adition, you can use embedded fonts, but Im not sure how all browsers deal with this.

    You can create images thru Photoshop. But I dont recommend to use an image to replace text, for a 500 word article.

    You could actually get the image sizes to be really small if it is styled very simply.

    As for dynamic text with images, it really depends. Do you want something like php (or possibly another language) to make them on the fly? You could possible even use flash for this kind of thing.

    Creating them yourself works best imo, or using flash (not sure how, but have seen it).

    But why would you like to style the big block of text and then without using images or flash?..

    With sIFR you can use any font without Flash or images. Do a Google search for more details
