   How would I be able to change the default font to like Arial?

   Look in the file wp-layout.css.
   You'll see the default font (Lucida Grande ?) there.
   Do a Find and replace with the name of the font that you want.
   That should do the trick :)
   If you want different fonts for different areas, change them one by one, and view the changes before making the next one.

   iKwak,
   I have annotated the entire wp-layout.css file and you can see it here . If, after looking over this page, you find that you have unanswered questions, post back here and I will attempt to answer them and also update the Wiki page to help clarify things for future users.

   Kevin,
   I think I see the problem. In your CSS, you have fonts with single quotes around them that aren't required.
   Examples: 'Tahoma', 'Arial' - I suggest removing those quotes. Also, in some cases, you have 'Tahoma', 'Tahoma', or 'Arial', Arial. Remove the doubled-up font calls as well.
   Also, I notice that you have Tahoma declared but serif as a generic font-family...you may wish to change that to sans-serif. This is in #menu-left ul li.
   Try tidying that stuff up a bit and then check the browsers again.
