night cub
I had to engage the bot filter once yesterday

Well, people with a different eyesight won't experience it the same way :tongue:

Right now it seems to work well, maybe the server was more loaded two hours ago.
I don't really have time to check further right now :ohwell:

If it works fine at 95% what is the problem for you? :tongue:


No problem for me, but it would be nice if everyone could experience the site the same way I do. As for the site speed, right now (12.30pm Europe time) the site is so slow that it's practically unusable.

If it works fine at 95% what is the problem for you? :tongue:
This is a random edge case when 100% does not fit but 95% does, but in many cases both fit, and in other cases none of the two fit.
Maybe I should a little increase the thumbnail size too, at some point, it may be better than reduce the text size for many people :grin: (not everybody can read small texts like us :wink:

About the speed, there are some bots that are very active :ohwell:
When the site is slow, an admin can enable the bot filter. Yesterday it worked well when I did it, but there must be an admin active on the site for that.

Antp, here's an example of why the larger text size is worse. See Cadillac - on the left (100% size) the text doesn't all fit onto 2 lines, spilling over onto a 3rd line. The right side is 95% (how it looked like before).

By the way, the site has been very slow the last few days.

Thanks :smile:
antp
So for you it is now smaller? Strange, for most of the people it had the opposite effect.

If you need larger text, you can easily change it in your profile :wink:
Others wanted it smaller :grin:
rjluna2
I did noticed the font changes today :ohwell:

I may have to squint a bit (I'm about 60-year-old gentleman with glasses on) :tongue:
antp
If it is good for you with 95%, what is the problem? Just let it on 95% :tongue:
It also depends on your screen, browser, etc.
I can't make it too small as many people have problems reading small texts (I can, but for non-latin characters it becomes complicated).
MisterZ
The new font/size seems to be spaced out more, meaning less information fits per line. If I change it to 95% size in profile, it looks like it did before. So why not just leave it the way it was before and let people adjust the size in profile if they want it larger?
The vehicle thumbnails are only a fixed size, so the amount of text that can fit underneath them per line is quite important.
