Tweaking the Wordpress theme #2

There have been more minor changes since writing Tweaking the Wordpress theme last month.

First, I reduced the body font size to 12px – this looks neater than before. I’ve adjusted the line spacing to match and changed the font size of the sidebar text to 11px.

Second, I narrowed the width of the main text column to 400 pixels. This is now around 70 characters wide – which is much easier to read. To complement this, the gutter has now been tightened considerably – following comments by arayans. I had to play with the width of the comments as well.

Next I plan to do something about the “knowledge workers” bubble
