Forget The Road To Basra
British Servicemen Killed in Iraq in 2007: 24
Cyclists Killed on Britains Roads in 2007: 74*
Pedestrians Killed on Britains Roads in 2007: 336*
Wonder how bad it’s going to look by the end of the year?
* based on 2005 accident figures.

Those statistics would appear to suggest that survival is easier when you have a machine gun.
By the way, your fonts are knackered - this here text boz is using 5px-high bold text, which is practically illegible.

“Box” I mean, not “boz.” The ‘x’ and ‘z’ glyphs appear to be identical when the text is this small :)

According to the stylesheet it’s 1.05em and normal…
hmmm…
/goes away to tinker….
1.3 em now. Looks huge now here on Firefox on a proper computer. I’ll check it out on Windows and Explorer tomorrow.
So long as it works alright in a Standards Compliant browser then I’m happy.
No, Explorer did NOT handle it properly
You’re welcome to design a new theme for me :-)

The fonts look fine to me in Firefox 2 and Opera 9, they look awful in Safari 3 and the site is completely fuckered in IE7 :)

Looks like it’s back to the drawing board.
Maybe instead of using accessibility friendly em based font sizes which seem to appear small or huge depending on the browsers default font I’ll set them to absolute sizes.

Fonts look good in every browser except Explorer. Windows font rendering is, frankly, pants.
