Comments on text size welcomed

[george]

Having been doing a bit of fine tuning and been sourcing some feedback on our latest `look` a couple of people have commented that some of the text size is `too small`.

Agree? Disagree? Nothing to worry about?

Too small on even a moderate setting of monitor / resolution ... myopic supporters will be onto a hiding.

Historic moment. Jont and Lee agree

Hmmm. Is there a global thingummyjig that can adjust the entire site `up one`? Rather do it `properly` than by editing appearance.

try the variable "standardfontsize"
It's probably set to default at 11px?

ETS..no doubt others will come up with a css reference change for it instead though so don't take that as gospel

G dont want to upset the apple cart, but are you using different font types

ps is a bit small even on a 19" monitor

How about Settings | Site Options | General | Appearance Settings?

[Donna Kempster]

Looks ok to me ..... but then that's prob as its the same size as our site!

[Sean Williams]

seems OK to me (on a 19" monitor)

Maybe i should have added with resolution 1280 not 1047

Just changed the font, but kept the standard size at 11.

Any better?

[Darren B]

Little better G Still think the fonts are different in the top paragraph to the rest, are you using verdana - fined this quite a good font to use as it's clear

Adjusting it via the Site Settings as suggested by Bill, the main one (at the moment) is Georgia.

dont use px use ems

1 ems is 'standard' size, thats about 12px.

0.5 is half and 2 is twice size.

body {1ems};
