Is it possible to increase the font size for the Dark Blue skin just like the Smooth Blue one?

Hold CTRL and move your middle mouse wheel up/down. You'll notice the text go bigger/smaller. ;)

Or if you don't have a mouse with a scroll-wheel, in your browser menu: View->Text Size.

To make the Dark Blue style fonts all the same as the Smooth Blue style, the following would need to be changed in the CSS.

1. body tag missing font attribute
font: 10pt verdana, geneva, lucida, 'lucida grande', arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
2. tcat tag missing font attribute
font: bold 10pt verdana, geneva, lucida, 'lucida grande', arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
3. thead tag missing font attribute
font: bold 11px verdana, geneva, lucida, 'lucida grande', arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
4. smallfont tag would need to be changed from 11px to 10px
5. vbmenu_option tag would need to be changed from 11px to 10px
6. vbmenu_hilite tag would need to be changed from 11px to 10px

Got bored, what can I say? ^^

Hehe I knew you would post that, Live!

Okay now I'm hoping to see an admin to apply these changes.

I don't. I like Dark Blue the way it is now. Besides, I can't notice that 1 px difference. Granted, it might be because I'm on 1280x1024, but meh.

I vote against changing Dark Blue. I'm using that because it's the style I find the most easy on the eyes even at 5:30 AM.

There is alot about the Dark Blue style I don't like, but I just deal with it. None of which has anything to do with the font sizes, they have never bothered me since I use the same resolution as Revan.

dark blue :down:

I suggest going with the Smooth Blue as it's the "most usable" style on this site. ;)

Not to be rude but your suggestion matters sod all. Styles are a matter of preference. I can't stand any of the other skins here, I wouldn't install them on my forum unless I was paid a monthly fee, and I certainly wouldn't delete the vB default. But I don't go advertising the DB skin any more than the fact that it exists in my postbit, nor do you have to.

People will use whatever style they like best, and I don't believe that vB.org design staff purposefully excludes features from any style, thereby making your argument null and void.
