Funny -- I really think everything looks pretty much exactly the same as before. When I first came on this morning, I was expecting the posts in here to end up with saying we were switching back to the old style.

Do you have problems, concerns, or recommendations about the technical side of the Phoenix? Air them here. Compliments also welcome.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I haven't tested this, but
body { font-family: "Times New Roman"; }
should do the trick.
Worked terrific, thanks. Serif fonts look much nicer to my eyes.

Jon, I tried what you indicated, and I'm still getting teeny-tiny font as I type.

Oh, sorry! If you want it bigger, try:
.formpost, .editpost {
font-size: 120%;
}

Okay, apparently I just needed to make it 100% instead of 90%. It's all good now.

Are the line breaks essential to the formatting?

The gray line of doom still shows up at the css site for me, by the way.
Which line is this? Was there always a line between the Read New--Recent links and the posting box? Is that new?
The text in posts feels bigger, but I don't think it's actually bigger. I'm not sure. It's weird. Something is different, but I don't know what. Was there a font change?

What do you mean by a linebreak? You mean the drawn line between posts? They've always been there, but can remove them if you like. If that's what you mean, I'll get some css for you to try in a moment.

You are correct. Things do not look exactly the same. Fonts may not be the exact same size as before, some of the spacing may be different, etc. This was the unavoidable result of switching from tables to more standards compliant css. The good news is that if you really don't like something, you can change it! Before the switch, you couldn't do that.
