This seems to be the case on all of the wordpress-hosted blogs that use the Benevolence theme.
Was a change made to the Benevolence theme causing the header and all blog entry titles to be italicized? This seems to have just occurred within the last 24 hours.
Is there something I can do (with a free account) to change it?
It looks really awful and if I can’t do anything am considering changing my theme.

Well, not on several PCs I’ve tried. The change seems to happen on PCs when upgrading to XP SP3. :(

I looked at the blog in IE 7, Firefox, and Safari and didn’t see italics for any of the post titles on the front page or on the permalink pages. Where are you seeing the italics and which browser are you using?

I’m seeing them on both IE 7 and Firefox 2, using one of several different XP Service Pack 3 PCs.

Looks fine on Safari and Firefox on my Mac.

and sorry, they’re in the titles of the posts and the categories down the left-hand side.

You mean the category-cloud?
I see no italics in firefox3, opera and safari on mac.
Have you cleared cache?

If you look down the left-hand side of my blog, everything that used to just be in bold is now bold italics, i.e. “project, bands, blogroll, people and things, [my link categories] recent posts, top posts, archives,” etc.
Just cleared the cache in IE on my PC and reset all the settings to default– same thing.

Apart from the bits of poetry and the odd sentence like “this is a follow-up post”, I see no italic. In three browsers… had a quick look at the source code, and see nothing wrong there either (a very quick look mind you).
:-S

How about on a PC running XP SP3?

…as I mentioned, that seems to be the particular environment in which I am seeing this problem– on multiple computers.

IE is rather picky when it comes to closing tags.
It is possible that it’s just a closing tag missing somewhere. Unless you have the css upgrade and have fiddled with it, it it something the staff must look into.

Nope, looks kosher to me. Bold, all caps, no italics. Using FF 2004 and XP Pro SP3.

Same in IE6. Using XP Pro SP3 on a PC in both cases.

In that case, we’re down to one person in the world who can see it :-S

Cool. Well, this rules out everything other than something on my end. Thanks folks.
