The left-hand links and the bottom/top links for read new, etc.

The higher up you want the changes to take effect, the higher up in the hierarchy you make the changes. The biggest container you have is body so if you increase font size there it should flow down.

I don't think I did that, I know I changed the font family. I'll give that a try, too.

Though if at any level below that container the font size is specified explicitly, in pixels, it will override the higher injunction.

In pixels! Ah, I tried what you said and then everything else became too big (links are great now, BTW) and percentages wouldn't fix it. So I need pixels instead of percentage? I will play with that and see what happens. Thanks, ita!

See, if you need everything big, make it bigger at the body level and remove the size increases at the lower levels. It's the most efficient way to do it.

ita, are the posts as read in thread part of the body? Because when I increase the body, it makes everything in the thread really heavy and dark. I've edited font size and family for the post message box and cites and stuff like that based on questions folks have asked here, but if there is a category for the posts I haven't seen it pop up in here, yet.

I'm seeing quoted text (not the Joss quotes, but the ones that use the less than sign in quick edit) as really, really tiny (as is the typing I'm doing in the add box). Looking at the style sheet, I can figure some of the things out, but I can't tell which ones these two are.

Also, is there a list of font color options somewhere? I'd like to turn my spoilers red instead of white.

ETA, wait, I think I have the last one.

This is a test

Woohoo! I win.

Frank, Google image search is your friend.

Thanks Jess. I'd managed to figure one red font out using the top-o-the-page quote color, but I found a brighter red with you link so now spoilers flash "DANGER! DANGER!" by their color.
