I sit a few feet away from a 19" monitor, and= =20 have my minimum font size set larger than normal to compensate for sites th= at=20 use teeny typefaces. When I loaded the new www.freebsd.org with that minim= um=20 size decreased a few points, it looked fine. Try it on your own: visit the site and increase the font size a bit, and se= e=20 if it doesn't resemble my screenshot. And it still renders as a a narrow=20 (maybe 50% of window width) column centered horizontally. That is, it=20 doesn't reflow at all. Widen your browser window and the little column sta= ys=20 centered in the middle of huge white tracts. Make it narrower and watch as= =20 the horizontal scroll bars pop into play. I still think the design generally looks fine, but the implementation isn't= so=20 hot. I'll see if I can find time to hack on it this weekend. =2D-=20 Kirk Strauser --nextPart1989443.r7jbQvtB5c Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQBDRSjz5sRg+Y0CpvERAkVZAJ9WEgY9QHj48sqSVfmEDH19ebZIWwCfaTgf GQMWAV1ZAqdATLpWaYUe/3k= =D952 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart1989443.r7jbQvtB5c--
