Hey, if you want to show off your graphic skills by making smaller buttons, be my guest.

I can't graphic anything, but I don't get why you can't copy one of the old ones and write "library" where it now says "general".

Because I couldn't match the font. Thus it looked like the odd one out

Ah yes, making it three times larger than the others and giving them a different colour will certainly alleviate that problem.

DU if you would mind posting up the button graphics somewhere and telling me what font you are using on the main page (for the date, and underneath the 5 fingers, the selectable text on top of the horizontal bar) I will take an ill-advised crack at it.

Blank button is here, re-size as you wish: http://www.rpgcodex.net/system/template ... _blank.png

Font colour: #AEBADC

Font is Tahoma. When I tried re-using it though, I couldn't get it to match the previous buttons - and had to fiddle a lot in Photoshop Elements to make the buttons readable at anything below 14 pt in that colour. Could be I used a different program originally.

The old finger font was Tahoma 12 bold. Matches perfectly. Also, these versions are much smaller (< 1KB) than the current fingers.
