Help with my Blog

Need a favor...

Would you look at my blog in whatever browser you're using/have available and tell me:

1) Browser

2) Do you have to scroll to the right to be able to see the sidebars?

3) What's your font setting?  (In IE, you go to View --> Text Size. In FF, you go to Tools ---> Options ---> Content. I don't have any others at work to provide directions for)

4) What's the readability of the font with your current settings? (massive? too small? just right?) Compared to other sites using your browser?

thanks :-) trying to figure out some weird browser differences! i hate IE!!

Re: Help with my Blog

  • 1) Browser: IE (from work)

    3) What's your font setting?  Medium

    4) What's the readability of the font with your current settings? Just right

    HTH!

  • 1) Browser Chrome2) Do you have to scroll to the right to be able to see the sidebars? Nope!
    3) What's your font setting?  (In IE, you go to View --> Text Size. In FF, you go to Tools ---> Options ---> Content. I don't have any others at work to provide directions for)  "Zoom" is Normal. There are only Normal, Smaller and Larger4) What's the readability of the font with your current settings? (massive? too small? just right?) Compared to other sites using your browser? Just right for me!  It works with my resolution, and looks just like IE's default.
  • 1. Safari on my Mac

    2. no scrolling necessary. 

    3. i can't figure out where to find this info... 

    4. your text is a tad small to me but not horrible... maybe looks like size 10 when I am used to size 12 but it's not a big deal to me.

    But, I have to admit that I usually read your blog through bloglines and only reference it when I want to try a recipe that I've bookmarked through bloglines.  :)

    It looks big, comparing to most blogs I read it looks too wide, and text seems larger, as if I have zoomed in a bit.

    lol ok this is the problem that i was having. it was way too wide & big (looked like size 14 font) and i had to scroll to be able to see the sidebars.

    so i tried taking the font on my blog down a size (its now on font size 11) and now looks normal to me in IE but pretty small in Firefox...

    WTH?? i have no idea how to fix this...

  • Everything looks swell to me, fonts are perfectly sized and require no extra scrolling.

     

    ...plus now you've given me blog envy. I must hide my url in shame.

  • Nest is being stupid... hope this isn't a duplicate post:

    1) Firefox on Mac

    2) no

    3) My default font is Times, is that what you mean?

    4) Font is small, but not too small.  I like it.  I like that you're using a serif font.

    Your site looks so great!!!!

    PS. I finally made the pizza crust, I'm going to go comment on that post now.

  • 1) Browser: tried both IE 7 and FF 3.6.3

    2) Do you have to scroll to the right to be able to see the sidebars? No on both

    3) What's your font setting?  IE = Medium FF = Times New Roman 16

    4) What's the readability of the font with your current settings? Just right


  • The problem could be people's screen resolution and not their browser. My screen is set at 1280x1024 and I don't have any issues. If I change it to 1152x864 I do have to scroll to the right to see your whole blog.
