Hey. New board.

Looking through the CSS: What's the purpose of putting "font-size: 80%" in the "admin-threads" section? It doesn't appear to be doing anything, since the "thread-desc" and "thread-title" sections are both overwriting it...

Also, does the # in front of its section mean anything? I admit to being only lightly familiar with CSS.

# is for id, . is for class.

"font-size: 80%" in the "admin-threads" section?

That controls the size of the left-hand thread titles on the front page & message center.

Do you mean the right-hand ones? That was my initial thought, but in my message center, at least, they appear to be exactly the same size as the ones in the middle.

Thanks, Jon!

Oops, yes - right-hand. Stage left. The admin threads.

Both the center threads and the admin threads are set at 80% in the default stylesheet.

Hey. New board.

Oh! NOW that makes sense. Thanks!

I have successfully banished all white from my b.org, replacing it with #EEEEEE. With the exception of the "Message Center" image, which uses white instead of transparency for the background.

Oh, I should probably edit my .spoiler to match my new background too.

I added a font-size line of 120% to the body section, and that made all the text larger. The text on the Index pages is still smaller than the thread pages.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

We're all going to go mad with power, aren't we?

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