I suspect some CSS rule is being incorrectly applied to the "new" feature notifier.

I'm talking about the "new" block that appears when a new navigation or other site element is added. It showed up most recently on the main site when the blog link was added.

It's NEW!

The e is nearly solid, and the rest of the text just looks... off. Any ideas why?

Additionally, as provided by @stuffe, As well as being blocky, it's not aligned to the text baseline.

  • I suspect that this question made Jeff realize that the link was not here on meta, since it's suddenly here, and "new"! Which was not the case last night when I wrote this up.

  • I found that removing the CSS shadow on that text helps. i.imgur.com/b8qij.png

  • I figured that might be the case. Definitely looks much more readable.
