The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I think I've got it now Jon. Just needed some more tinkering.

Okay, weird, becaus I sure don't have it.

It's gone for me now too, I think-- refreshing didn't do it, but signing on on a different computer did.

No need to copy over the whole thing. The original stylesheet always gets used, but anything you put in your personal stylesheet will override what's in the original.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Everyone's getting the turbo css course. Kewl.
Ya! Although, right now, my head is like "huh?". Slowly ideas are budding of small custimizations, that it seems CSS could do for me. I'll wait until the tranfer hub-bub calms down. Y'all need sleep. Good job Jon & Ita!!

(btw, the grey line is at the bottom for me, and it doesn't bother me at all.)

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Jon, I'm not sure if it's the same blank space the perkins is talking about, but the space between the end of a post and the dividing rule below it has gone from around 20px to about 30px. And if you look at omnis's post above, it's about 40px. (I'm looking at www.buffistas.net for comparison.)

I think I've divined most of the stuff in the CSS code, except -- what does "calloutbox" refer to? I keep changing the font size, but then when I look at what I've done, nothing seems to have a changed size.

calloutbox refers to the yellow boxes on the left.

Oh, duh. That makes sense. Thanks!

One last question: what's the identifier for the text that we type in the post box? That's the last thing that I can't seem to make bigger.

So if I put font-family: times new roman; in my custom css box, all the font will show as Times New Roman?

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Literalist, here.

Everything looks groovy and just as it should, except for font size. I've been reading about the css, even clicked over to the page with the css stuff on it, and honestly, I can't tell what I'm supposed to do. Sorry.

Everything is great with being where it's supposed to be, so, huge and grateful thanks to ita and Jon and DX and anybody else who worked on that. What I've been doing until I figure out how to change things permanently is changing text size in "View" (Firefox) for message center, to get it large enough to read, then changing it back in-thread to get it un-bolded.

If someone can give me step by step to change font size *either* in message center *or* in-thread, that would be all I'd need. And sorry for the dim.
