Forums acting strangely
The typeface is now extra tiny.

Is it just me?

**shrug** The typeface looks like it always does for me.

The problem is at your end of the line, Urban.

Did your browser's zoom level change?

Mine often changes automatically lately?!
No idea why though, and I do know about the short-cut.

I know in Opera if you hold down ctrl and use the mousewheel it will change your zoom level, as will certain numbers on the numeric pad. Both annoying as hell.

My keyboard might getting old though, could be the ctrl is sticking, so each time I scroll my text changes..

I have no problem with this. Btw, I didn't know about this ctrl-mouse-wheel thing. You learn something every day!

Not my side, either.

I have no problems at Slashdot and SDMB.

Added: the fortune cookies don't change, just the regular threads and the reply screens. The latter have characters that are too small to see

The problem has to exist on someone's side.

My guess is that, prompted by one too many underlined words that aren't links, UR has finally started to lose his grip on reality.

Are you into making gratuitous snarky comments?

"DrSpike is a smelly Orc chieftain with a great big hole in his head."

Anyway, the font sizes are still messing up.

I can set the size for the regular page to be bigger, but then the letters on the fortune page become too big.

I've not had any problems at all with font sizes.

Seems normal to me.

Does it do the same thing in different browsers?

For the record, fonts are still fine for me.

Hehe, it like being at a party and making a loud comment you think everyone will agree with. Instead, the party goes silent at the moment and everyone hears, and turns to you horrified. The only sound is that of the tumbleweed doing its thing.

Are you sure?

Normaly 'Shift+wheel' acts the same as the back and forward button IIRC.
