Massive Ebay Fonts

Post by Vard66 »

Don't they just piss you off?

It's bad enough on a 17" monitor or what have you, but I'm using a 32" TV, so when I come across the ads that these spitwanks put up in font size #440, I actually feel like reeling backwards.

These folks want you to read their ad so badly that they feel that supersizing the writing is the way to grab your attention and hold it, but it just makes the writing harder to read, it takes longer to scroll, and because it's such a sharp transition from the normal sized text on Ebay, it means you're less likely to actually take in what these chavvy pricks are trying to convey in their nonsensical number-words anyway.

SIZE IT DOWN, YOU FUCKTARD COCKBAGS.

AGREED

lol

Like to use the KISS approach - Keep It Simple Stupid

I would like to think all the Ebay shop listings i have done are basic, straight to the point and tell you what you need to know with out any fluffle :smt001

I never get questions about the items and or bad comments about them.

I've also found a heap of Thailand listings that are selling "knock-offs" - just pity all the poor Monkey riders in the UK who think they have a Yoshimura pipe on their bike :smt009
Nothing worse than having an H and not being able to scratch it !
