Unless you're happy to have your design break royally upon encountering
minimum font size, containers need to be big enough for the text they
contain.

I appreciate all the advice I am getting on this topic and it's
raising some very important issues for me and I think the template
creators too. I understand setting the line-height as a ratio, and the
font sizes could still be set as pixels (or should this be a ratio
too?). I am

Hi,
What about using CSS3 web fonts http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fontface/generator
?
Upload the font you want, it will generate all the different types,
link to them using the @fontface thing and bingo - they don't need
that font on their system.
or am I dreadfully mistaken?

Hi,
Ok I have an image for my background. It's repeating but because it's
not a tiling pattern it looks odd if you are zoomed out so far that
you can't see it. One option could be to remove the repeating and have
some kind of effect, e.g. gradient, that dissolves the image into a

Could css-d give me some examples of what you think are the best kind
of declarations for items such as menu links (horizontal, 1 line)
using ratios and whatever else so that I do not run into problems with
min font sizes. It'll just give me a starting point and then I can
play about with it

You may want to view your page in IE/8. Nothing to do with the fix that
