really the only way to make it appear that it is text is to make whatever text your working with an image.

The only downfall is its search engines are not going to pick it up. So if you are not worried about that then just make it an image.

The way around that is with "image replacement".

the Fahrner Image Replacement technique works like this: you decide you want to replace, say, a header containing text with an equivalent image. So, you wrap the text in a span, hide the span with display: none, and set your image as a background-image on the header.

-for ekka.

pretty cool trick!

That was the original. There are now about 10 techniques, all just about the same, but with a little enhancement. Perhaps the best being the Levin method.
