Bravo!<BR/><BR/>And I gotta say it's kinda fun being on THIS end of a usability test! :)<BR/><BR/>I'd say C is out right off the bat - you're using a serif font there, and that's bad for the web in general blocks of body text. It's preferred on paper - helps the eyes following along a line of text. On the screen, which is just a bunch of light, the serifs (those little legs attached to the letters) just clutter things up. I didn't make this up - it's just what I've read in plenty of studies.<BR/><BR/>Between A and B? I like smaller text usually - you get more content in the same amount of space, so less scrolling - but B is DEFINITELY easier on the eyes. Your users, er, sorry, readers can always adjust their font size with their browser (typically with View > Text Size) and make it whatever suits them best, but I've found most folks don't seem to know about this...<BR/><BR/>I hope you plan to post the results of your survey - at least some of the general summed-up concepts? Would be great to see what people think!<BR/><BR/>Oh, and thanks for asking! :)Jephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02843262392217281569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12997259.post-60183571644297552552007-08-10T13:29:00.000-05:002007-08-10T13:29:00.000-05:00b,roseb,<BR/>roseAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
