The font is probably 1 or 2 points larger than before, it doesn’t seem that large to me but I am on a 1920×1080 screen (well, 2 screens, but they’re both that resolution) so that could be a factor, I might drop the sizes by 1pt and see how that looks.

@Julian, the what I’m doing and recent comments bit were working fine (in Firefox, IE, and Chrome) before I launched it, but I’m experiencing the same problem, they’re not too integral to the design so I may remove them for now. Could you tell me a bit more about the RSS problem, the image is meant to run the width of the sidebar, it starts at the left of the ‘categories tab’ and finishes on the right of the searchbox, is it doeing something else for you? The image doesn’t look the best, I wasn’t happy with it, so it could be it’s low quality fooling you into believing there is an issue.

The shop image was another rush-job compromise, that space was meant to be the featured content gallery and user upload area, but it was being troublesome so I swapped it at the last minute for a static picture for simplicities sake. I wanted to use a different font but thought I’d better keep it in line with the rest of the site for now. I’d love to have lots more stuff using the logo font, but I think Ray drew it freehand so it’s custom type, and getting him to do the whole alphabet would be a bit beyond my budget I’d imagine.

Thanks for all the feedback and pointers, the design is an ongoing process so it will all be considered when I’m working on it.

Just a couple of things I’ve noticed in chrome -
The ‘What I’m doing…’ and ‘Recent Comments’ have been pushed below the content.
The orange ‘Grab the RSS Feed’ button is stretched.

I really recommend a more stylised font for the shop banner (perhaps something like your logo font?)
