Thanks for that note, Betsy.
Hey, Jon, why don't you go over to DX's house and steal his VERDANA.TTF. That should fix things ...
Damn you, Bridget! Damn you to Hades! You broke my heart in a million pieces! You made me love you, and then you-- I SHAVED MY BEARD FOR YOU, DEVIL WOMAN!

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

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
OK, I locked ours.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
I'd like user pictures in the user info pages. It would be nice to come across whenever I go looking for someone's email or something.
Also, I don't really care about the font, but I'd like to be able to change the size of the text in posts. It's way to big for me--I resize the page to 80% when I'm in Opera.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
SA, that is so funny, as I resize the pages to 120% for my old eyes!

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

We've been through this. I tried that. Jon, control freak that he is, then has the pages default to Ariel. I still don't get the pages looking the way I want them. What I once did on one of my work machines was opened up a copy of Trebuchet MS in a font editor, changed all the internal references to duplicate the ones in Verdana, and renamed that as verdana.ttf. That's kind of extreme, though.
If it comes to that, why bother specifying the font in the first place? Neither TT nor WX did. They respected browser defaults in the matter.

I'll do whatever the bullshit consensus tell me to do.

DX, I was just kidding.
So where are we with sheet options? Is it being considered over tweaking individual settings? If it is predefined sheets, are those options workable?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
IMO, yes and yes. So long as we manage to find a way to make DX happy. Heh.

DX, I was just kidding.
I know you were. You asked which of the proposed changes to the code I would like to see. If we can't do it, we can't do it. I just don't see why we have to be locked in to such a fugugly default font.
And this is not about making me happy. If I'm the only person who has a problem with the font, then take it off the list.
