In the default case, up to 40% of the page is left margin, and the text scrolls off beyond the right margin. - PR pages (including, presumably, this one) are in ridiculously large text. The overall impression is very negative, particularly in comparison with other BSD project web sites. As a result, I'm categorizing this PR as "critical" and "high priority". >How-To-Repeat: Using firefox, view: http://www.freebsd.org/ http://www.netbsd.org/ http://www.openbsd.org/ http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=91536 Compare the results with http://www.lemis.com/grog/Photos-20060109.html. If they're not the same, this may help explain the problem. >Fix: Removing font size specifics from the CSS style sheets might be a start. Also remove margin specifications unless absolutely necessary. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
