BL - what OS & browser ?

Not sure, can check tomorrow if it matters. If I can figure out how.

Hey guys

We are just trying to get all the info we can to nail this down.

It seems some browsers handle it better than others which is why the additional info may help.

A screen shot (just a section is good) helps because one persons too big is anothers just right.

Thanks !

FF3, OS X 10.5.4.

It's not easy to tell from the picture, but if you look carefully, you'll see that the "Pages" links end a bit far to the left where they should be right-justified and the "New Messages" text does not use the same margin as the rest of the page.

Subject line when reading posts are too big and bold. My eyes gets drawn to them. Since you already reading the thread why does the subject line have to be big and bold? Think about it.

Dakota, it as fixed yesterday but reverted back. Dunno why.

JIM: Here's an example of what I had in mind when I mentioned the post box earlier. No author needed (IMO, it's redundant) and more concise use of whitespace. But if ya gotta keep Author, maybe move Subject up on the same line, to Author's right? Same idea with the "Options")

Firefox 2.x, 10.5.4.
My reply box text is equal to the size 14 font in your image.
Everything else is the same.
Need reply box text smaller, badly . . .

Proceed carefully with this suggestion, please. I reported earlier that the "pages" are too far to the right when there are only two or three pages, and asked for some padding, and got it. Since my insurance lapsed I'm paying out of pocket for these fixes.

i like deckadecka's suggestion about lessening the empty space in the post reply secton. options of 'Follow Topic' and "Email me about..." can be on one line. i do think Author should remain though. not sure why except in my aging mind sometimes i need a reminder of what i'm doing. 8-)

i also don't quite get why "Add my signature..." needs to be taking up space. doesn't anyone who wants a sig have it activated?

You be the judge. Isn't the actual message lost in the jumble of fonts?
