Since you like the text size small, here's my suggestion. It's OK to start off with it small by default, as long as people can actually adjust it to their liking. You've got a couple of choices here. You could:
  • Provide an alternate style sheet with large fonts; or
  • Use a measurement unit for "font-size" that isn't absolute.

Personally, I like the second idea best. Try using percentages or ems--both are units that allow users to make the font larger or smaller. For instance, your description font would be roughly .6em--still very small. wink And remember, you've got next to no control of font size in non-IE browsers because of the great accessibility features built into them. wink

Thanks Matt, I think I am just going to make a second theme with bigger font sizes and install MyStyle. I haven't quite learned about ems, but I will look into it. laugh

My only suggestion is to tweak your rotating icon so that it moves a bit slower. The faster an animated gif is, the more likely it will look jerky, as the OS occasionaly pauses to do something else.

The second and fourth frame in the animation are a little jagged, and the faster its going the harder it is to notice it. laugh

My opinion...you've got to get rid of what you have on your home page. Not only do you have no links to your site sections without flash, but you're using mystery meat navigation AND the text is completely unreadable once you mouse over the images. Try to make your page usable, not just good-looking. :rolleyes:
Did I forget to tell you that the site is totally under construction, and I have not finished the main page yet. I just put up the flash thing as a temporary menu to get to the forums as I am not done the index page yet.

Hmm.. maybe I will make a different template set to release, this wasn't quite as good as I was hoping. smash
