Primary: [Advanced Layout]

Attempting to bump up the font size on my board a few points. I went though the default css and added 3pts to all the fonts, changing nothing else I also changed the layout file to point to the uploaded copy of the new css file. The two files are below. Atm it will give me a message (Your changes are deployed) but my fonts are still the same >.>

Thank you ahead of time if someone can help me make my font's just a bit bigger then 9pt. ^^

The href for your css is pointing to an old location that is no longer valid. Try changing it to the following:

Six Demon BagRefresh This Item
Jack Burton: Hey, what more can a guy ask for?
Egg Shen: Oh, a six-demon bag!
Jack Burton: Terrific, a six-demon bag. Sensational. What's in it, Egg?
Egg Shen: Wind, fire, all that kind of thing!
Ahh I hate being a dimwit, I'm prolly missing something simple.

This is the current head to the layout file im uploading and attemping to point towards my new default.css file. I do not think anything is wrong with my defaulst.css as all ive done is change the font #'s from the original.

No matter what I seem to try I can't get it to change from the default. I've deleted my uploads and tried again.

Well thanks for getting back to me so quick. Also does anyone know if the new "Layout Templates" will offer more then one font/size choice?

Try deleting that highlighted section. That might override defaults.
