The font on the new quotes format is so small that it's getting pixellated and illegible on my PC here. I'm on Xp with Opera 9 in 1440xsomethingorother resolution.

Been noticed already?

Is there an easy way to overlay your own CSS in Opera? If so, then the class for quoted text is "forumQuote", so you could try:

CSS said:

.forumQuote {
font-size: larger;
}


to get bigger text (might be more readble).

I'm using Opera, and using a rewriting proxy to alter the HTML to load edited versions of the stylesheets from my own webserver.

There's a simpler solution. I've made the quotes bigger.

Is there no way of querying the browser for what res the machine is using and resizing any bits on the page appropriately?

ETA: This is JS doing it?

document.write("SCREEN RESOLUTION: "
document.write(screen.width + "*"
document.write(screen.height + "<br>"
document.write("AVAILABLE VIEW AREA: "
document.write(window.screen.availWidth + "*"
document.write(window.screen.availHeight + "<br>"
document.write("COLOR DEPTH: "
document.write(window.screen.colorDepth + "<br>"


I have no real proper HTML knowledge, only an understanding, but surely it can't be that hard?
