Various CSS issues (text not flowing around images, captions that look like part of the following paragraph) appear to have been fixed recently. I'm hoping that's not the end of the refinements though, as the font sizes for me (Firefox, default zoom level) seem a bit extreme in their variation.

News article headline : 24px
News article body : 12px (half the height, or one quarter of the area for any given letter)
Picture caption : 9.6px bold

To my eye the headline doesn't need to be so big, and the body is too small. Certainly the huge delta between the sizes is visually jarring and spoils the reading experience.

(the above was based on viewing the 'LA Show: Land Rover' article)

It's something I've noticed as well. I think the headline size is good, but the font size of the articles could be increased.

I'll play around with it in a bit. smile
