Nice! The Hacker News logo in Palatino is very very elegant, but Helvetica makes the body more readable. What about using Palatino just for the logo?

  You can mix and match yourself, as for me -- I like to keep font variation to a minimum. a[href=news] {font-family:Palatino, 'Liberation Serif', Georgia, serif !important;}

The "before" link goes to a thumbnail image. Very nice!

  Thanks, fixed.

Is it just me or does this not really work as a user style on Firefox? (I still see the orange bar at the top of the screen, etc...)
- godDLL 16y ago
  Whoops, the code listing page should say 'WebKit browsers'. Firefox support is forthcoming. I apologise for the inconvenience.

  Doesn't quite work for me on Chrome. The fonts are too small. Works great on Safari though.

    Which version/channel of Chrome is that? I'd like to have a look at fixing it. Also, please list your extensions.

      I've got the stable build: 8.0.552.237. After disabling my extensions and re-enabling them one by one, I think vimium is causing the problem.

        I couldn't reproduce what you describe, but I'm on dev 10.0.634.0. Tried with Vimium too.

Beautiful! I'm still need to get my eyeglass prescription redone, but I can put it off a little longer now.
