Hi, the design was done by a professional designer.
I am not a professional designer and so far I trusted external expertise. I did some sanity checks of course and other software products use even smaller fonts. Using pixel size is problematic, but using point sizes is not perfect either. Speaking from experience, any discussion about design, ends in heavy bike shedding. This is why I prefer objective criticism instead of opinions. There will be no design/welcome page everybody likes. What we can provide is a welcome page that works for everybody and does not get into the way. If on your retina display the font is to small (to small to read, smaller then the text of e.g. tool tips etc.), I consider this a bug. Please create a bug report. If the kerning is broken this is most likely a bug in the font rendering. Kind Regards, Thomas Hartmann Am 02/12/2013 19:05, schrieb Robert Knight: >> yes, this was a conscious decision.
