I don’t like the current font, and it’s hard to tell bolded text from non-bolded text. Is there a way for me to choose which font I want to see the board in? I didn’t find anything in User CP, but I might’ve missed it. ---

What web browser are you using? You can create your own style sheet if you want to suit your personal needs. Sometimes it’s easier if you are using a standards-compliant browser such as Firefox or Opera a simple readjust of the text size might do the trick. ---

I’m using Firefox 3. How would I go about making only this site use a specific stylesheet? ---

It’s Trebuchet, one of the Microsoft core fonts. If you’re using a Mac or Linux box, it might not be among the default fonts. If you search around a bit, you’ll be able to find plenty of sites where it can be downloaded. ---

I wonder if it’s possible to write a Greasemonkey script to render ridiculous my least favorite posters by making their posts appear in Comic Sans. ---
