New forums font

too big

I think that the new font that is being used on the forums is too big and should be put down to 11px so it isnt as big. Verdana gets pretty wide over 11px as you can see...

Verdana at 11pt is fine, you're just picky.

What browser do you use? FF for instance got extensions to let you override stuff on sites. You could use something like that to change to font to Tahoma which is narrower.

Hell, I use the the 'No-Squint' extension to make everything bigger. Am I the only old fart that's going blind?

I didn't realize what you meant unitl I logged in on IE. Firefox seems normal to me.

Edit: Cleared the cache now FF2 is showing them as well. No complaints from me. Easier on the eyes.

How about an option in the My Settings for the skin selector to have 11px size fonts for those of us who can't stand the huge fonts? I actually find the 12px *harder* to read. Just have it use an 11px version of the css or something. >_<

This size seems a bit big. 'Horsey' as my type teacher always says.
