As you have noticed by now, fonts are larger across the site. Also, the Home Page looks different as I got rid of all the stuff on the right hand side. Some of it has vanished, and some of it has simply been moved over to the left hand side. You can still use My YWS for easy access to "Posts Since Last Visit" and to your profile.

The Home Page change just has to do with making it look less squished. The font change has to do with two things:

1. Makes it easier on the eyes
2. In the code, the font size is now mostly compliant with normal web standards. That is, instead of a specific pixel size (it was 10px mostly before), it's now given a key term size (large, medium, small, x-small).

Do you like the changes, or did you like it before?

I liked the previous page. You have to scroll down for everything on the left side, but I'll get used to it.

I preferred stuff on the right hand side personally! But it's easy to get used to.

EDIT: I'm really not a fan of the big text. That's just a personal preference really.

I don't really like the new changes...it makes it look a bit...immature. Does that make any sense? I know why I say that....because little kids write really big and it reminds me of that! lol. But I'll get used to it....and if it's improving the site then great.

Got YWS?

I preferred its previous look, really - looks off-kilter now, somehow.

Kill the big text, I can't STAND it! *cries* And I liked having the stuff along the right side, it made everything look symetrical.

If it makes any differance I think the bid=gger type makes it harder to read the stuff. I am new here and I only saw the small type for one day until you changed it so...
I also kinda liked the stuff on the right, I'm with Gyr!!! It makes it look symetrical!!! :D
Anyway, please change it back! :cry:
Please!!! :cry: :cry: :cry:

My that was a bit accesive!

Wait... and for some reason I can't access the "View more emoticons" screen, probably nothing. But then I can't put on my dancing elephant!!!

It surprised me when I first saw it, it made me think that my computer was going strange things again, sometimes it plays with the font size. But it made me eyes hurt with the large font. I prefer the previous one.

I'm with the others, it looks uneven and unbalanced, it was better symmetrical.
please grant me my small wish; (love me to the marrow of my bones)
