Or at least, not the most readable. Pressing ctrl+- from that is much better.
On a side note, I feel the front page lacks structure. What are the links? Do they follow on from each other? Or can I just read each "block". Why are they separated into blocks?
- xenophanes 17y agoThe text in your jpg picture doesn't look huge to me. I think people have widely varying taste in font size. I don't really know what I should set the default as. Anyone got general advice? About the structure, they are vaguely intended to be read in order, and they are grouped into related topics, but it's not especially important which is why I didn't emphasize it more.
- bmelton 17y agoI think how it looked in his screenshot is quite good, actually. It also looks quite good in my browser, for what it's worth. I don't mean to argue for argument's sake, but I wouldn't change it.
- jseliger 17y agoThere seems to be a dichotomy between the font sizers favored by designers, particularly of Wordpress themes, and most readers: the former like smaller font sizes that look better when taken as part of the whole graphical packages, while the latter like larger fonts. I remember Joel Spolsky saying somewhere that he thought part of the reason Joel on Software succeeded in attracting visitors was/is because of its large font relative to many other software development websites. He was joking—but only in part. Incidentally, the small font size defaults caused me to buy the CSS upgrade at Wordpress for The Story's Story at http://jseliger.com http://jseliger.com . You tell me if it looks better than most other Wordpress blogs you've seen based the size of its font.
