Seconded. It hurts my eyes.
Agreed, we should be using wingdings.
agree
Agree, or at least smaller.
I dunno, I kind of like it...
i like it
Revert please.
I agree, I fear change.
Please change back.
...looks like we have some mixed reviews. We had a Serif font before for just the titles and a Sans Serif for body. Now we have a Sans font (Lato) for everything. I agree it may be slightly too big, but I also thought that it would make it easier to read.
We got rid of the Small Caps (as you can see from "Forum Topics" and menu titles) which I think looks cleaner, but maybe we look back at what we had before for the sans font in the body or 1 pt smaller in lato.
Let's give it this week and then re-poll everyone. Change is hard and I am shocked everyone isnt saying they hate it honestly. When I first saw it even i recoiled, but after reading site for a bit, I thought it was cleaner and slightly easier to read with larger font. Maybe I am getting too old?
I welcome other thoughts here...
i say we keep it, as I personally kind of enjoy the flavor to be completely truthful in this regard.
Arial just isn't working.
I like it
Like it, too
I like it just make it smaller a little bit.
Smaller, whole webpage doesn't fit in my standard frame.
It is, every other webpage displays correctly except WSO, don't really know why. If I have 100% zoom setting, I can't see the Forum Topics, Highest Ranked Content, etc. therefore have to zoom out. Macbook Pro 13, Chrome web browser if it helps in any way.
We need Comic Sans. #lezbereal.
It's not that bad..you guys are just scared of change. I bet if it was this font to begin with, there wouldn't be any complaints.
I just zoom out the browser.
It's better than the drop caps, though a serif kind of font in the post bodies would make for easier reading.

This. Or a slightly bolder sans serif font?
Edit: Just tried zooming out one level - a lot easier to read.
I just think that the letters are a bit too big. The font is OK, I really don't care too much about it as long as your next upgrade isn't changing it to cursive or something.
I like it.
I like the change.
Not a fan on Google Chrome
The font still looks very jagged. It's uncomfortable to read for some reason.
yeah font is too large. i dont mind the font style though.
Not sure where to put this, put it seems more relevant here. Can the designers of WSO make it so that you can click an icon next to the thread name, which takes you to your first unread post? It'd make browsing the forum so much easier. Thanks
Just realised it has this. Thanks!.
hey why'd i get monkey shit. i asked nicely. not cool.
It's very strange on Chrome. I'd second changing it to something else.
please change back to the old font
Please keep the new font, especially for titles.
yeah, for titles (block headers and forum titles) I am definitely keeping this font. For the body, we may move back, but I want to let it sit a few more days. Not sure...some mixed reviews....and most people hate change, so the fact that some people like it says a lot.
Any other opinions?
The people who like it at all must be trolling. The old font was fine. The new one is physically hard on the eyes.
Please change the body font back, the new one is terrible
Where are my WINGDINGS?
Don't mean to hijack this - but - another suggestion. In my last 15 minutes of scrolling through WSO I found it annoying that I couldn't 'thumbs-up' or 'thumbs-down' someone's comment without wasting my wealth of 2 WSOcoins.
'Thumbs-up' & 'Thumbs-down' 'Like' & 'Dislike' button?
because then you would get random assholes giving thumbs down to everything a person writes...like right now, how i'm going to track every thread you've posted in and throw monkey poop at you
Ouch! Haha fair point. It was just a suggestion, all I meant was that there is a lot of content I want to SB but can't because I have very few. Didn't mean it indefinitely, just adding to the suggestion box.
Can anyone transfer me credits so I can make this happen?
Just clarifying that I wasn't trying to insult or degrade the site, nor anyone for that matter. Just saw the thread and thought it would be a good place to voice a thought that I have been coming across over the past week or so. Sorry!
changing the body text back to Lucida Grande like we had before, but keeping Lato for our Titles, block titles, menu titles, etc....That way we are still pure Sans Serif, buthopefully you guys find the body text more readable that way.
What about WebDings??
