Changed fonts for entire system when trying to change mplayer fonts

I was trying to make the subtitles in mplayer smaller and saw that one possible solution was to copy a new font into the mplayer/fonts folder and replace the shortcut.

I did the following:

#sudo cp /usr/share/fonts/TTF/times.ttf /usr/share/mplayer/subfont.ttf


To my horror this seems to have changed the default font for the entire system. I'm able to change fonts through "obconf", but apps like conky and pypanel don't response to these changes. How can I change things back? Or at least be able to customize the font in pypanel an conky so I can get a system wide font??

EDIT: Well, I fixed it. I just did the same, but with a font I like. Kinda weird way to change fonts, but it works.
