OT: Forum Look & Feel

Jonathan Neal wrote on 11/10/2008, 1:23 PM

Has anyone noticed that the forum changes styles after you login? The font becomes large and buggy, and not nearly as clean looking as when not logged in. Is this a bug?

It's been like this for almost two years, and I figured it was time to ask. Apologies to all who read this expecting something more interesting.

Mine stays the same.

What browser/OS are you using Jonathan?

Firefox, but the CSS is actually changing.

For example, the forum is switching between fonts.css, fonts1.css, fonts2.css, and fonts3.css. Each one consequentially adds height to the font-size. Without being logged in, I see fonts.css, otherwise I see fonts3.css which tells the typeface to be distractingly larger.

Change the font size under preferences in your forum account to "normal" and then the font will stay the same.

I don't notice any change .. but then I don't log-in.

Well, you must be logged in since you're posting messages. What you probably mean is that you don't log out.

2 years later and it was as simple as looking in My Account > Preferences > Website Preferences > Font Size.

Doh!

Thanks everyone, much.
