I loveeee your new siggy!
Rosie Blush looks beautiful in there with the handsome Batman. 
The awards.
Good idea!
Also sort of off topic.... another thing that is slightly annoying is when people use abnormally large text in ALL posts. If you have bad eyesight there's no excuse. There's an option on your browser to make ALL text larger so you can read it better, or change the resolution of your monitor to make it large. I just don't see why people insist on using size 5 or 6 font size in all their posts. It's fin if your using it as a heading or your trying to get a point across and you want to make sure everyone gets it, but come on now, you don't need size 6+ font for your average post. I know this only really has to do with a few but just thought i'd throw that out there.... also wondering if anyone else feels the same way.
And regarding the awards, i think they'd be better if they were smaller. I don't see why they have to be larger than signature... just button almost would be fine.
IMO
But then it makes everything else super tiny.
aww thanks luv! I love it too, Cydney is super brilliant at making them isnt she?
I loveeee your new siggy!
i hate the large font too. The reason I have it though is because when AA first started there was a vote and it was requested that we do have it larger for the ease of some of the others on the board.Also sort of off topic.... another thing that is slightly annoying is when people use abnormally large text in ALL posts.

entitled to your opinion of course but from memory the decision was reached because we do or did have quite a few posters who were older and/or not very computer literate. As I said I was not a fan of it at the time but figure if it makes others time here more enjoyable and It helps me get the knowledge from someone who may be a amazing bird knowledge base but not net /computer savvy then I am ok with it
that sounds like a great ideaRegarding font size, perhaps a compromise can be achieved by adding an option to the user preferences page that would permit viewing the forum without user text formatting? This could be included in the option to show user customizations when the option is ticked off. I don't know enough of forum design to give better advice, just trying to see if I could accommodate as many people as possible.
I would think so, everyone should be satisfied if it's possible. I doubled my font size because several people requested it last year. They thought my original font size was too small. To tell you the truth, I prefer my font this size now and glad they suggested I increase it.
awww mollymouse, what an adorable siggy!!!
I think yours and Oknuma's font sizes are fine. They only seem like maybe one notch up from the regular size or so, and that's fine. I'm meaning like This or This like this is fine.... even this is not an outrageous size.I would think so, everyone should be satisfied if it's possible.

But they must view other sites too.... not just forums but like sites with current events, articles etc...hehe i can understand having soap box topics, I have a couple of my own
I think quite a few of our older/computer newbie posters only post here and no one else.
correct me if i am wrong of course though people
