Font size after redesign of the site

Post by Jdsk »

There's some criticism of the font size following the redesign:

I seem to have a problem with word spacing. I can't always tell if there is a space between two words that I've typed, which is a function of the choice of font.

I've updated the stylesheet to include the Cycling UK style guide's letter and word spacing that I had missed before. Should be easier to read now.

Any plans to rebrand Dark Mode?

Might get around to it at some point soon. Only 29 users have selected it.

Please would you tweak the word spacing again; it's now too many px and leads to a stuttering read
Thanks for your efforts :)

Yes I agree - would be great if the spacing could be reduced slightly

Well actually, I rather like the new appearance of the forum.

Looking at the main Cycling UK website, it seems that the Word Spacing increase in the style guide is not in use there. So I've removed it here too.

The text colour is also now slightly darker.
