    The text appears to be black now instead of muddy grey. Maybe that explains why the forum backgrounds don't appear to be so glaring though.

    It seems "heavier"....the individual characters' "strokes" seem wider....but it's still varying in colour for me :(

    And the white background hasn't actually changed, I've been toggling between windows to check that and there's not any difference for me. There does seem to be LESS of it however, and as one poster noted the spaces BETWEEN words etc. seems to have shrunk, so there's less "flicker effect" scanning along a line of text :)

    Why in earth have we a CAT smiley??? And THREE "mads"???

    That could explain it.

    It must be my eyes, but if I click to quote and compare the white of the editing box with the white of the surround beyond the grey box, the surround just seems to me to be ever so slightly darker. Must just be my eyes.:-D

    The 3 mad smileys only appear when posting replies in this thread, someone's having a laugh at our expense. :D

    Don't bring back the rolleyes smiley DS. Just leave it out. These are good enough.

    i think the kitty one has been specifically designed for the masterchef thread as so many dishes last week looked like cat sick this is a much quicker way of saying that

    Great to see proper smilies back! No sign of the confused man though :(

    No rolleyes either, but I think it's best if he gets pensioned off as the sarcy look did cause a lot of conflict. ;)

    Edit: I stand corrected: :confused::D

    They're not perfected yet - they are a bit muddled up, some are disappearing and some comments here are coming up blank. But it's a v-a-s-t inprovement.

    That guy is evil. Pure and utter evil. Why do people crave that negative emoticon so much? >:(

    I wouldn't say it's entirely negative.

    Most of the time, I would use it to get my sarcasm across along with a :D smiley.

    I do hope it comes back!

    You can use Ctrl + to increase the font size; Ctrl - to decrease it; Ctrl 0 to change it back to the default. You'll also note that in the address bar, you'll get a magnifying glass symbol any time that the page zoom changes from the default. If you click that when it shows, you can also reset it back again.

    Crikey! I knew about that feature but I just assumed it was global to all sites. Fankoo. :kitty:

    :o:(:p >:( ;-) :D:blush::):confused: :kitty:

    Jam tart eyes seems to have disappeared.

    Assuming we're not having our original chaps back, I am very happy with these new guys (although green grin should have a wider gob).
