I've been away for nearly two months, and I have come back to find various changes to the exeweb appearance, most of them good. One major complaint I have now though is that the general font on posts made is not nearly bold enough to be easily read. The sub heading contents on the introductory page are so grey they are almost unreadable, but I dont care about that. The bigger problem is the lack of distinction on the exeweb posts themselves. The nice red box that quotes are in now in is a nice touch, but please make the lettering in general bolder.

Back there, freezing my meat and two veg off! It is so unnaturally cold for the beginning of april! Could be we're in line for another ice age again; wooly mammoths and sabre tooth tigers running up and down High Street. I didnt bother to go to one match, but from the highlights it appears Arturs form is slipping a tad.

Holding CRTL and pressing + increases the font size on most websites.

Here to help.

Thank you so much for your magnification advice, but thats not my concern. What I'm saying is that the font isnt as bold (black) as it was and it makes it hard to read. We went through this with Liam when he was setting up and improving the new site following our suggestions. He's definitely slipped back a shade on the text that was originally agreed as acceptable.

Given Pate's location, should that not have read BOULDER font?

Switched from dark grey to dead black. Better?

Are you sure you've quite got it right?
