True. But I'm also sick of your giant, giant body font. Fluid layouts are especially bad at this, to the point that I need to resize my browser window every time I load a page, to make the font smaller.
The body font on - for example - this blog is way, way too big for me. My eyes hurt by reading it. I would make it 2px smaller and give it better line-height.
- flogic 14y agoHmm... I though it was about right.
- MaysonL 14y agoZoom in.
- nilliams 14y agoI find that pretty odd tbh. What size monitor? Do you sit leaning towards the screen or leant back in your chair? That blog font-size looks great to me. 1600 x 900, laptop, rocking a casual, semi-hunched position.
- drharris 14y agoAgreed, and I'm surprised there aren't more of us. I don't advocate for 12px font sizes, but somewhere around 14 is probably correct. 16px is typically absurd. I wasn't even able to finish reading this blog post because it hurt so bad. Maybe if my monitor was another foot back or so, but unfortunately I'm in the common position of a cubicle with limited desktop mobility, so that's not an option. Really, I find myself just not reading any site with absurdly big font sizes, or absurdly small. Keep designing for that 60 year old market if you want, but you're alienating the younger demographics.
