Yeah I've been using it for a couple projects. IMO, it has a bit too much personality for Hubski. I don't know though. It may work.

I mocked it up with Ubuntu as site text and Source Sans Pro as user text. It's not a bad pairing IMO. However, I am not sure if much was gained. I want to let this soak in.

I think the font-size of the text input and comments need to be increased to 13px or so. I'm going to have wrinkles from squinting at longer comments. :P

Yeah, I just changed it. I do wish that the difference between 13px and 14px wasn't so huge. I wish there were a size in the middle.

insomniasexx  ·  3867 days ago  ·  link  ·  

Like 13.5px?

mk  ·  3867 days ago  ·  link  ·  

It doesn't change the size.

Oh yeah huh. I've switch to rems for font-sizes now.

I think you get the same discreteness there.

It's simply easier to fine tune changes because you can edit the master % size at the top by whatever you want. SO I have have a 62.5% on html which would mean 14px - 1.4rem. But if I change to 63%, all font sizes would increase by a tiny amount.

It gives Hubski a futuristic look. I like it, it's modern. It separates us more from '90s textboards.
