What's going on with the fonts?

Posted on 09/27/2001 3:52:09 PM PDT by steveegg

What happened to the fonts around here? Seems when I look at responses, things are blockquoted and in an odd font.

Yep, looks like crap. Is someone having yellow journalism dreams?

I wonder if this new format will automatically close open tags?

I'm pretty sure these are the new format changes (including filters to prevent open tags).

John can't hear you; he's too busy playing with the font. ;^)

I made a few changes to the software. I'm wrapping all text in a pair of blockquotes, and am experimenting with the new font. I think it's easier to read. I also extended the em tag to do yellow highlighting.

Also, if you blockquote some text, it will appear indented and in italics. Thanks to the many wonders of cascading style sheets.

You're right. I thought it was something I did and I've been trying to undo it on another thread. Now I find that it is everywhere.

This is not a test thread, so I'm gonna feel real bad if this stays Italic...

The new font is easier to read, but it's a little large. Can you reduce it a point or two? (I like the indentation, except those parentheses look funny.)

Well, I like not having to fix someone else's open tags. But both the yellow AND the font are ugly.
