It's nice that you can customize it because the default - serif - font isn't that readable, atleast not on win7+opera.

Also, I think they need to update the default font families because calibri and other post Vista fonts are as commonly used as Arial & co.

If you have any suggestions, I'm very open to them. As a matter of fact, if you're up to it, you can design your very own theme -- I'll let you name it, and give you full credit. Or, if you just have a couple of quick suggestions, feel free to list them here, or get in touch (http://readable.tastefulwords.com/about-and-contact/).

Design own theme? Sure, why not. How does this work?

Here's a bug report for you. Using Win7,32bit/Opera 11.10, the text field for specifying custom font families doesn't really show because the borders aren't visible. Screenshot http://i.imgur.com/gwb2O.jpg

Well, just customize Readable (http://readable.tastefulwords.com/?setup) to your heart's content. Then, get in touch, and send me the custom options you used.

If the theme is awesome, I'll add it to Readable's selection of themes (http://readable.tastefulwords.com/?setup#explain-style-theme...). Did you try those out, by the way?

If you know CSS, you can also heavily customize Readable via the "More CSS" option.
