Default font size - website

Hi all, I've played with the sizing of my headings and body text - I'd love some feedback, particularly is the body text big enough to be easily read? thanks, Leisa

A tiny bit larger couldn't hurt...

I would put a little more gap between the headers and the body text also.

Cheers!

It depends on the age of your target market. I have old eyes and even with my reading glasses it's too small.

I think make the paragraph text slightly larger.

To be safe, maybe make it slightly larger. Also might be a good idea to change it from a black to a dark-grey, so it's just a little easier on the eyes
Thanks all, I'll go a little lighter - and a touch bigger.

As for me, the font is just right. I can read it pretty well. And a neat website by the way.

I'm just seeing it now for the first time. The current size you have in there is readable. I wear glasses. However, if it were me I'd be upping it one more font size so it's similar to the forum here.

For me the font size is readable. Although it can also depend on what browser people are using and what % zoom they have on.
