Hi. My Bebo has changed. I am English and it has switched to Spanish. Could you help me?

Hola Senorita. Sorry, I couldn't help myself. It took me a few minutes of exploring Bebo to figure this one out. But I've found the solution!

First, What is Bebo?

Bebo.com is a social networking site featuring videos, channels, blogs, fiction, groups, and applications. Honestly, I had never tried it out until today when tackling your question. I had to sign up for an account in order to access the Help section, which didn't say a whole lot about changing the language in Bebo. So, I was on my own.

Going International on Bebo

It turns out that you can set Bebo to display in the following languages: French, Dutch, Italian, Spanish, German, Polish, and English. If you want to change the Bebo language, you simply need to go down to the lower right corner of the screen and look for the flag beside the copyright notice. In your case, you should see a red and yellow striped flag and the word "Español." Click this word and pick English from the list.

Changing the Font on Bebo  

In your original question to Filetonic.com, you mentioned also that the font had changed. This one is a mystery to me. I thought at first that the language change may have also affected the font, but when I switched back and forth between English and Spanish, I couldn't tell any difference. The only other thing I could think of was that changing skins might also change the font style.

I did find a cool little Web site that you can enter specific text into and have the font change automatically into several different styles. From there, you can cut and paste the desired text into your Bebo site.

Filetonic readers and Bebo experts, I'm asking for your help. If anyone knows how to change the font in Bebo, could you post the instructions here?
