The fonts on http://www.ldraw.org are too small for the mac.  Here is what • the
main page looks like on a Mac for both Netscape and Explorer:

Thanks.

It looks like we'll have to make separate CSS files for Mac and PC.  This
way, the fonts can stay the same on the PC (where they are perfect size).

I wish the browsers/fonts didn't display differently between OSes like that
:(

A solution might take until tomorrow, when Jacob gets back online.  I'll
email him and we'll work through the problem.

(...) Out of curiousity, I tried this on my Mac (iMac 333, MacOS 8.6 - yes, I am a ludite). I got the same 'too small' with MSIE 4.5, but got a good font display (I assume the issue is the radio buttons on the right) using Netscape 4.76. Ray (23 years ago, 21-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) Noooo! Just make things right. Also, all those annoying, much too wide tables, makes the site almost completely unusable for me (unless I use lynx). If you want to make a multi-column layout, please do it with CSS. Jacob (23 years ago, 22-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, lugnet.publish)
