Rascal~ 657 January 13, 2014 #1 Share January 13, 2014 Like it says in the title, has the forum font changed? I just noticed it when it first changed for me since the last one was easier on the eyes than this one, just want to know if its me and my computer or its the actual forums going for a new look.

King 5,625 January 14, 2014 #2 Share January 14, 2014 From what I understand the only thing thats changed in terms of site design is the scrolling user bar and the way banners work. The font shouldn't have changed. 1 Goddamn right, you should be scared of me Twitter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jokuc 8,173 January 14, 2014 #3 Share January 14, 2014 The forum font has not been changed. It has always been the same Arial font for posts. However the banner and navigation bar has changed from something like this Reveal hidden contents ...to how it looks now. The font on the buttons has changed from Celestia Redux to Josefin Sans. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was wonding why I was getting that text like above rather than the smoother text. Oh and this one is probably more easier to see: http://prntscr.com/2jdx4q Fire Sharp Stardust Sai Time Scribe Chai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like this for me: What forum theme are you using? If you don't know, you can find out by clicking Change Theme in the page footer, like so: Also, what browser are you using, and is it up to date?

MLPForums Phanact 1,374 January 14, 2014 #9 Share January 14, 2014 If you have Helvetica Neue installed then uninstall it. For some reason it causes a lot of issues in web browser font rendering across all operating systems. 1 let's love for me and lets love loud and let's love now cause soon enough we'll die Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll just need to search for fonts in your Windows start menu, click the one that is something like "view or edit fonts" and then right click on the Helvetica Neue don't and uninstall it. If you're on Mac, open up Applications and then Fontbook and uninstall Helvetica Neue. 1 let's love for me and lets love loud and let's love now cause soon enough we'll die Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
