  My theme is Twenty Twelve. All my italicized text is teeny. Example: proustmatters.com > menu>Reflections>I wish I Were a Water Lily. Look at last line ” … as much as wish we were those lilies.” The word “were” is in teeny italics How do I make all italics a bit larger?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi Sharon,

  The italics look proportional to me, but you can make them bigger with the following CSS:

  .entry-content p em {
  	font-size: 19px;
  }

  You’d just adjust the ’19px’ until it looks like you want it to. :)

  Eurello – as always, you are my hero (or heroine – I can’t tell from the tiny picture.) It’s perfect now. (;-)

  Heroine, technically, but either way, I’ll take it! ;)

  Glad you’re set.
