Has anyone else noticed this?

Text is now being drawn as it is in 1.2. Very strange.

Unless the administrators changed the board default settings (which I doubt very much... way too much effort involved there, right guys? )

Either way, they also made the "refresh" icon point clockwise instead of counterclockwise. Annoying. It also starts at 3, and goes to 12; before it started at 10, and went to 12. Very annoying.

Yeah, that really destroys my browsing experience. How can I concentrate on the page content when that sadistic refresh icon is sitting there, all 'clockwise', laughing at me? Starting at 3 of all places? Doesn't Apple know 3 is evil?!

You complain about the lamest stuff sometimes, Cipher.

Just something I noticed that I find annoying. Wasn't really a complaint.

I can't tell if everyone's being sarcastic or not....

Anyway, Prefs > Advanced > Check Never Use Fonts Smaller Than, and put 10 in there to fix 'NN.

BTW, it looks more readable in Internet Explorer for Windows.

IE for WIndows has always had a clockwise REFRESH. So it makes sense that Apple gets in line for that.

Good job.

That had better be a joke or this is the most pathetic thing I have ever heard.

Ugh yeah! I noticed this today. This morning I noticed how the refresh button was 10 -> 12 and now it is suddenly the other way around. Now it is 3 -> 12. Dammit. Why does Apple always do their quality control after they release products?! :sigh:
