ah, it's a shame that 一朝被蛇咬十年怕井绳   didn't get more discussion...it's a beautiful visual...to see every slinky shadow as a snake.

This will be my last comment on thi stopic, I know I've been persistent, but I strongly dislike the new character fonts and layouts introduced recently.

The overall feel is very blocky and they are much harder to read and less appealing than the former layout.

In the same way that Microsoft 'upgrades' are actually downgrades, I think this new font 'upgrade' was a big downgrade.

Just my opinion.

I thought the new font was temporary?  Jenny had mentioned that.  I find it so compressed and visually unapealling.
