Typography is an art too - print designers can use type to
add to the design - we can't??

You want to design for print, then design for print. It's not the same as skiing, and it's not the same as web design.


Yes you can, but - unlike print - users can and will change the
size of the text, resize their windows, change resolution, etc
Good design takes these different situations into account and
tries to find a solution that works at least acceptably in those
cases.

Users can also change that font you agonized over ;-)

It's a tool, not a rule.

It's the nature of the medium.

It is, which makes me wonder why this discussion exists on a list supposedly inhabited by people passionate about web standards.

Incidentally, I agree (mostly) with Joseph.
