That looks vaguely terrifying.

This, basically.

Hooray for gun-shaped ships!
Did someone not get the memo? (I.e., <5px still works.)

HmmmUsing pt has the limitation...this is "2pt"

px? Maybe he only did it for pt! ;) Who else uses px?

And since when did I get that title?  :confused:  :eek:

I just don't bother reading it. If someone makes something hard for me to read they'd better not expect me to give a **** what they wrote

There we go.  The minimum font size is now 5pt. :)
Looks like majority of people don't really mind the small text. Me included. I can only assume those who voted "Snufflepaugus" don't really give a crap.

Colored font annoy me more than small font. Maybe I'll start writing in annoying colors too!

Re: About using tiny text in posts
i dont really see what the point is to posting in very small text. i mean it doesnt make any sense at all. it seems like its something some internet troll would do to piss people off, or maybe some lame passive agressive way to make your self look cooler than you are. perhaps you are compensating for your excessively large penis thats always tearing holes in your jeans. i generally dispise 99% of what the people on the internet do, seriously people grow up. stop acting like a total emo douche and post in normal size characters. AT LEAST YOUR NOT TALKING IN CAPITOL LETTERS LIKE BILLY MAZE BECAUSE THAT IS REALLY LAME. YOU ARE NOT BILLY MAZE, YOUVE PROBIBLY NEVER SNORTED COCAIN IN YOUR LIFE. YOURE NOTHING BUT A BIG WUSS. maybe youre trying to hide how lame you really are, posting things you barely even admit to your self in little letters so peoplee can ignore them. you people need to get laid if all you do is type in little bitty letters. but of course nobody wants to **** you because youre lame. NOT AS LAME AS YOU BILLY MAZE WANABEES WHO WILL NEVER SNORT COCAINE IN YOUR LIFE AND YOU HAVE A TINY PENIS!. but youre still lame. i hope you get aids, even though thats impossible since you will never ever get laid. maybe you will try to cut your self with a dirty knife that has some other emo's aids blood on it and you will get aids too, then you will use the fact that you have aids to try to convince people youre not a virgin. youre so lame. maybe you will just need blood and they will give you aids blood because  they dont want to was non aids blood on your pathetic ass. i bet you couldnt even get laid in prison. the should lock you up to remove you from the gene pool, not that you will ever get the chance to reproduce. but we dont want you raping a squirrel because the offspring would be half squirrel half lame retards who run around in circles and chew on their own nuts. not that you have any nuts to speek of. youre so lame. i hope you die. wait what was this post about i forget, oh well im sure there was a ****ing point. maybe i just felt like being a troll. if youre still reading this you really need to get a ****ing life. it is obviouse that i am just being a douche and posting a bunch of random crap that doesnt even need to be posted but because the letters are so small they will need to be a lot of them for it even to look like anything was posted. its ok im allowed to post small because im a hypocrite, so that makes it ok. oh and ime not even gonna bother to spellcheck this because im evil and i got better things to do than to bull**** on the internet. oh yea, you people who post small are lame.

so whats the upper limit on font size?

It would've been more readable if you had used proper capitals since you went through the trouble of using sentences. Some paragraphs would've been nice too. :p

I just treat(ed) tiny text as I would text in parentheses. (like this)

This is basically the motivation for most of the things I do.

Also, thanks for the help you and your uncle provided, I owe you one.
