I'm using the text size menu set at "smallest" right now to get the font size back to where it was before for me.
That's what I did here at work, although for me, it's the "smaller" setting.
I knew when I made the change that we'd be trading one set of problems for another. So far, it seems like folks are generally happier with the new problems than with the old. I think some tweaking can be done. For instance, the date/time/post stamp to the right of the poster's name is also using the default font size. I should probably change that to use a specific px. That will require coordination with ita.
I don't know if this has been suggested before. Would it be possible to add to the wish list a mention of the name of the thread down near the post message box? I don't think I am the only person to post on the wrong thread, particularly when using the awesome Read New option.
The thread name is in the title bar, Laura, so it's always visible.
But it's not visible when you're posting down at the bottom of the page, as it was on WX and TT.
It would be nice if there was a way to distinguish the posting box in the no-natter threads, so that there's a visual clue to warn people not to natter.
True nuff that it is on the title bar, but I don't think to look there. I've just learned to be more careful.

Your title bar is not my title bar. I'm talking about the thing that's at the very top of the browser window, above the browser's toolbar, above the File, Edit, View menus, etc.
...or not positioned relative to your menus at all, if you're one of us Mac folks. But it's the area with the close, minimize and zoom controls.
With the default fonts for Mozilla on the Mac, the title is pretty small compared to the rest of the text in the browser. It's hard to see, so it doesn't help much to keep one from posting to the wrong thread.
I think it would be good to add another line above the posting box that displays the name of the thread that will receive the new message.
Michele--in case you didn't get your fontsize fixed, in IE (at least in IE 6), go to View, then down to Text Size, where you can change the size of things.
Stompy foot needed in Natter to close a font tag.
Edit: never mind, it's not Natter and I can't find the post anymore.
