Car: Dodge Viper (I wish!) Rep Power: 234 | Woah, indeed it does.  Have you tried hitting control + 0 (reset font size to 100%)?

Car: Looking for one. Rep Power: 0 | That is at 100% font size in Firefox 2.0. Screen DPI's not what is assumed to be in Windows -- I'm running at a higher dots-per-inch setting (about 135 dpi). Windows usually is around 96 dpi. Turns out vBulliten uses points instead of pixel heights for fonts.

Car: Dodge Viper (I wish!) Rep Power: 234 | No it doesn't. Look at the CSS file. There's only one or two font size declarations that are in pt form. And it's not my fault if you're running a higher DPI.  Best I can suggest is you press control and minus a few times to shrink the fonts.

Car: Looking for one. Rep Power: 0 | I did, as well as slap it through Firefox's DOM Inspector. I ended up adjusting the CSS styles for the P, TD, TH, LI, STRONG, and TEXTAREA tags as well as the "tcat," "alt2," "bginput," and "bigusername" CSS style classes. Besides, the Font zoom options affects the browser and doesn't carry over to new tabs. If I pull up, say, Slashdot, I don't have to do any major font adjustments. Spacing adjustments, though....

I'm going to turn off that feature though. Having people use ImageShack and the likes is just easier.
