Dear chickeneers, I promised and I failed: this *is* the last email about the wiki redesign (unless there is a major problem with it :)
Following Thomas advice I changed default font to "sans-serif", leaving "Noto Sans" only for the menu and h1, h2, h3, h4, h5 and h6. It is much more readable to me now. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/621606/chicken-wiki.tar.gz Best wishes, Arthur 2014/1/4 Arthur Maciel <[email protected]> > Thomas, with the feedback of Evan Hanson I realized that in order to set > the #content top border correctly I have to set the #menu position to > "relative".
