    Yes. It's not a big deal because the font will update to the larger size when you actually make the post but it'd be nice to have it a little bigger.

    Default A couple of CSS issues

    First of all, many thanks for the new skin. I really quite like it (after sprinkling some stylish fairy dust on it).

    Two minor issues:

    1. There appears to be something not quite right with the CSS for the user box (div .smallfont, cf. css1.png)
    2. Icons appear to bleed into the box right next to them (td .controlbar, cf. css2.png)


    Firefox 2 on a Wintendo Playstation, and Firefox 3 under OpenBSD and Linux.

    Keep up the good work!

    I had to switch back to the old style, the colors scheme was hurting my eyes, even with the enlarged font.

    DW,

    I agree with Mike that the contrast on the new page is too great to be comfortable to look at for extended periods of time.

    With the improvements and updates and wallpaper, etc, is there any way to have whatever the means may be called to resize the posts after an over-large picture is posted so we can get things back to a non-scroll format?

    It would be nice if people weren't allowed to "insert images" at all (i.e., they were only allowed to "attach" images). That way pictures would ALWAYS be resized to fit (hence no scroll bars) AND there would NEVER be broken links (like now appear in, for example, http://straightrazorpalace.com/showpost.php?p=196793&postcount=8
    ) when people move/delete images on picture hosting servers.

    +1 on switching back to the old theme. The new one is really hard to look at - way too much contrast

    The fonts are easier to read, kudos for adjusting those.
    As others have said the contrast is too far off to make it comfortable to easily read for long periods of time. If you can lighten up the background that may fix that problem.
    Another problem for me, is it seems that I have to select the old theme on each page. After selecting it on the homepage it doesn't want to hold. That may be just me, or Windoze, or Firefox.
    You guys are doing a great job. Thank you!!

    Thumbs down Switching back

    Just wanted to post that I've switched back to the old format. I don't mind the appearance of the new skin, and rather liked the concept behind some of the new features, but it's a little buggy and I'm apparently not holding my mouth right...
    Let me know when the kinks are worked out and I'll be back
