    Strange, I use a 42" TV for my PC as well and the fonts (and certain graphics) shrunk! Edit; only certain fonts shrunk, the main text is the same size, but thicker.

    It's less noticeable on Android chrome in desktop view because of the re-sizing but one positive I'm noticing is that the buttons (which were really unresponsive before) seem to be behaving much better. Major positive.

      Some of the header graphics are smaller for sure, but the font is pretty big looking for me.

        This is what it looks like for me.

          Edit, can't see it well because it's compressed but here's a direct link. Don't know why it has zero detail. It' looks much cleaner on my screen.
          Don't know why it's showing up so small;

          So weird. At least I know I'm not going mad. here's yours, followed by mine;

            Even your direct link is very small. Is that the actual size of your browser or is your resolution small?

              I cropped and zoomed to help illustrate the differences. For some reason, the font is not the same as yours. Yours looks just like the old font used to for me. When I type a post, it shows the old font while I'm typing, but then the new (bolder) font when it posts. Maybe there's some weird setting in my Win7 that's causing it to read differently. However, no other forums I go to have changed like this at all. Wonder if anyone else is getting this.

                The only thing I believe, and I have to check on this, is that your system is missing a specific font that's being used.

                I remember something like that happened to me more than once when I lost a font.

                  Ah, interesting. Sounds feasible. I'll look into it. Thx.
