  When viewing my blog in Firefox (my preferred browser) the body text (Freshy Theme) borders on being too small. I was tempted to change the style to something like 1.25em, but in Safari and IE, the text, if anything, is a little on the big side.

  Is there any consistent way to lock in a comfortable font size? Will specifying a pixel height distort the actual appearance on different monitors with different resolutions?

  What do ya’ll usually do to control font size?
