See, in my fantasy, when I'm kissing you... you're kissing me. It's okay. I can wait.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

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?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

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.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Seriously, this is all crazy amazing. Thanks again.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Are the line breaks essential to the formatting?

Or do you mean in the CSS? If so--no.

That's way cool, but I don't really know how! I don't know what all the parameters for the old version were. I'm not sure what all I need to tinker with (and how) to make it look like it did before.

Seriously, this is all crazy amazing. Thanks again.

It's loads better than the TWoP redesign! But so many things are.

Ooooh! Yeah, what ita said.

.formpost, .editpost {width: 505px;height: 175px;}

is the same as

.formpost, .editpost {
   width: 505px;
   height: 175px;
}

I was using the formatting for clarity.
