Ungly Gtk Fonts After Ubuntu Update
Well i updated to the latest versions of packages in the apt-get source list and i installed some extra apps like amule, some games (tuxkart, supertux), and i found that something happened that changed the fonts used by gtk1 applications such as xmms. As you can see from the picture the fonts now look huge and terrible.
I am not sure but i think it has something to do with libwxgtk since it was one of the last packages installed before i noticed the problem. I am not sure if it has anything to do with that but i have 2 versions of the above package installed at the same time
libwxgtk2.4 and libwxgtk2.5.3.
Any ideas how i can change the fonts to look the way they did when i first installed Ubuntu. For gtk1 applications only. Gtk2 looks great!
Thanks in advance!

check if gtk-theme-switch is installed,
if not, install it
gtk-theme-switch comes in two variants, one for gtk1 and the other for gtk2 (gtk-theme-switch2), but it is one package.
if you choose extra options (click on the plus sign) you can change the fonts.
[edit]
if this doesn't work, you can create your own .gtkrc,
it's not so dificult, but i can't give you an example
just google on it.
