Instead of adjusting my browser(s), I'd rather develop with the likely setup of most users, which doesn't normally include messing with default font sizes. I am satisfied with the font sizes and do not really see the need to continue messing with them. I need to move on to other things to get the site ready.darin_mcgrew wrote:If it were my browser, I'd adjust its default font size so that normal text didn't appear way larger than I would rather have it.

For me, 13 pixels is huge. I do understand that it all depends on personal preference and/or necessity due to poor vision so I can understand those that would like to be able to change the size of the fonts.darin_mcgrew wrote:I use a minimum font size of 12 pixels. My normal font size is 13 pixels, so there isn't much room for fonts to shrink.
My normal font size is fine as it is. I used to set my minimum font size at 11 pixels, which is legible, but not very comfortable. But too many sites that I visit frequently use microfonts for important text (like the main navigation links at the top of http://derbytalk.com/), and I want to be able to read that text comfortably.
I do agree that the small fonts in the header of this site are way too small. I don't think I ever touched that stylesheet when setting up this forum. I will address this once I can get the new GrandPrix Race Central site finished.
