Off topic: The ultra light custom fonts a lot of websites use nowadays (looks like "Bariol" on this site), do they look bad to anyone other than me? Both in Firefox and Opera (Linux) many of the lines are invisible or barely visible (example: http://i.imgur.com/Yk0Q83G.png http://i.imgur.com/Yk0Q83G.png ). In Chrome they look a little bit better.
- nekopa 14y agoOn my iPad all the letter 'D's have disappeared. It's quite disconcerting.
- evolve2k 14y agoSame on my iPhone, all the 'd' characters don't show up properly at all. Had to read the article zoomed right up so that the spider thin d characters were visible at all. Please change the font.

- julien_c 14y agoLooks great in Mac OS.
- nathos 14y agoIn my experience, the issues w/ thin font weights tend to be worse on Windows & Linux. Worth keeping in mind if you're using these fonts (particularly if you're using some of the free fonts from Google Web Fonts that aren't necessarily well-hinted)
- grinich 14y agoLooks like your browser isn't properly doing sub-pixel anti-aliasing.
