@font-face not working properly

[LuckyMonkey]

Hey guys I am having problems getting fonts to work on my forum.

I designed this site with the idea that the forums would be in their own section with little to no supplement but still stay consistent in the design

http://almost-there.org

Here as you can see on the menubar

Forums Fridge IRC Servers Gadgets Steam

The fonts are part of the "Ubuntu" Font family
And they are working properly using this document
http://www.almost-there.org/style/fonts/...Ubuntu.css

But on the Forums
http://almost-there.org/forums/

The font is not being correctly imported/applied

And since in mybb PHP import is not supported and is too hacky to implement. I decided to clone this stylesheet document into the mybb Themes stylesheet listing in the ACP

I realized that since the fonts will not reside in the same folder as the CSS document I would have to add the proper sub-URL so it may be pointed to the correct place.

So instaid of

src: url('ubuntu-r-webfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),

It would be

src: url('styles/fonts/ubuntu-r-webfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),

Iv'e tried a few variations of this with little to no luck.
Its also been very difficult to test since I have the Ubuntu font installed locally on my computer. I see the font weather or not its being imported from almost-there or not.

I have run out of ideas, Can anybody help me?

I am not so sure about it but if using HTML tags, almost many fonts seem to work fine for me. For example:

<font face="Arial">My description</font>

works fine.

'Ubuntu' will not work since it is a custom font and does not come preinstalled on any computer.

It works on mine because I have it installed, However if I go to another computer and try it out the font will show up as the DOM default.

Such cases occur only if your db tables are not utf8 (unicode in that), which I doubt, because MyBB has all tables by default to utf8, unless you've specified something else. As I've used wordpress, I know that in it, by default latin is the standard conversion. You sure it wasn't seen on other PC?

I don't touch the DB stuff we have an other administrator take care of that.

I am 100% sure that this isn't the problem.

But I think the problem exists when pointing to the font's url themselves in they way that myBB is interfering.

I checked the source and the fonts we're being correctly applied. Whats the problem here exactly?
