It's the line-height that makes things look funny. How about something that makes Important notes stand out a bit like this version? http://people.freebsd.org/~keramida/bsd-css/2008.11.10/install-pre.html The changes to the `blockquote.IMPORTANT' class are: * Remove `color: red', `font-family: arial', `font-weight: bold' and the custom `line-height'. * Add a bit of padding to avoid bumping into any <blockquote> borders. * Add a red border with a thick left side that highlights the block. This way the font family is the same as the rest of the text and it doesn't look weird if your default sans-serif font is, say, DejaVu instead of Arial :) [ I'm undecided between making .IMPORTANT stand out with a red background and this. A red background seems like something that can hurt my eyes if I stare at it for a long time. This is _different_ that the rest of the .NOTE, .EXAMPLE and so on. ]
