Typography #44

Closed twelch closed 12 years ago

twelch commented 12 years ago

16px is feeling a bit big in some places like the experience page. essentially because the body text is close enough to the size and shade of the headers that there is not good distinction. Dropping the text to 15px really makes the headers start to pop more. perhaps an increase in header size would also help or a better distinction in shade.

Something to revisit

Does the darker header make for better distinction? I still like the 16, but we could go to 15 throughout.

Personally, I think darker pops more than lighter. Headers that are lighter than the body text (unless the background is dark) always confuse me. I thin it just has to do with how they relate, so not how dark the header is in general but how dark it is compared to the body text.

We can get feedback before making a decision.
