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?
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.

Seriously, this is all crazy amazing. Thanks again.
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.

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.
OK, this CSS stuff is seriously fun. I'm going to end up with a totally unreadable board if I don't stop myself.

We can help with the "how" part. The question is, does it look bad in some way, or are you just not used to the slight differences? I've been using the css version for months now, and it took a little getting used to, but it looks perfectly "normal" to me now. Maybe you just need a little time?
After refreshing and modifying my font, I am a happy girl! Thanks so much for all this work, stompies!

It's possible. I don't deal well with change. Nothing looks
bad,
per se. Except for the extra padding in every other post. In alternating posts, there are a couple extra blank lines between the end of the post and the separating line. I think that's what Perkins was talking about?
What was the font/font size on the old board? Maybe if I changed that back, things would look more normal to me.
P-C, I think we are talking about the same thing, as was DX.
I put this in my personal CSS
post {
padding-bottom: 0;
padding-top: 0;
border-bottom: solid 1px;
}
And it helped somewhat. Some posts still have extra padding on the bottom, but I think that may be because sometimes people put in an hard return or two.
Thanks again, stompies! Playing with the CSS was kind of fun.
