your tiny text hurts my eyes

Dec 11, 2007 20:41

* More and more I've found I have to enlarge people's fonts to read a story. Seriously, what's with the 8pt?? And the gray on gray coloring? what? Oh hey, the text is slightly darker than the background, that's plenty! I'm old, people! I need black 12pt text on a white background! Thanks ( Read more... )

YES. grey font on a white background is really popular for some reason, and it makes me cranky.

and I loved Tin Man. Zooey looks and sounds exactly like her sister, and I love them both. ♥

I'm starting squint at the screen constantly, it sucks :(

She's really so like Emily, I can't believe I didn't realize until this series came out that they were sisters!

Yep! And even my Dad who usually doesn't like the same stuff I like liked it.

Did you hear it's coming out on DVD in March?

So Zooey is Bones's sister? I'm not crazy? Good to know. I was like "Dude, she looks familiar...." I LOVE that stupid episode. So much. It makes me sad. But man, it was awesome when you picture it right before this years. *pets Bones* Such a good little show. I miss Goodman, too.

Yep, she's Bones's sister! They look SO alike, it's crazy.

I loved Goodman, I wish they'd bring him back!

After finding out the last name, I thought it was familiar, especially the face. I think it is both their coloring...the dark, dark hair and light light eyes on the pale skin. *nods*

I loved him too. He went away because he went on another show but it didn't work out well. He should totally come back.

Oh man I am glad I'm not the only one fussing about the font and colors. I especially hate red print on black. hate hate hate.

And I loved Tin Man except for the girl. Seemed unfortunately to me that she had two expressions - snarky and wide eyed monotone.

But I loved the rest of the cast and the mini series.

Oh I forgot about red on black - that's the devil.

And you didn't like Zooey? I LOVE her, I've been a fan since Elf. She's got a dry delivery, like Bones :)

I swear, I read 90% of stories using Firefox's "no style" these days. And text size enlarged.
