I think what would really improve this would be to make the @ the same font as used in the game. Can this be done?--Drat (Talk) 15:37, 15 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

You mean as in the command-prompt version of the game? The font would be terminal, but I'm not sure what would happen it the user didn't have that font. (i.e. they use a Mac) I think that it could be done; I'm working on it now. --SheeEttin 21:27, 13 April 2006 (UTC)Reply
Okay, it's done, now that the little downage of the servers has been cleared up. I'm not sure how it'll work (I'm not too familiar with this kind of thing), but I think that if they don't have Terminal as a font, it'll default to a fixed-width one. --SheeEttin 23:30, 13 April 2006 (UTC)Reply
Thanks, but on reflection, I've reverted to the previous version. The terminal @ looks hideous in comparison (at least here on wikipedia). And like you say, not everyone would have the font. Things may as well be consistent between systems. Oh yeah, the reason I use point size 19 is that 20 cuts off the top of the @ slightly.--Drat (Talk) 01:52, 14 April 2006 (UTC)Reply
No problem. Personally, I like it better this way, too. I'm not sure why it's cutting the top off it for you; it looks fine to me. Look at this, and tell me how it looks: Template:User email b. The @ in that box is 20-point font, and it's doesn't appear cut off to me. --SheeEttin 21:54, 14 April 2006 (UTC)Reply
