mod portal redesign: wider search / discussion title fields

G'day. With the mod design, the portal looks great!

The one thing that causes me trouble is that the text fields for search, and for the title of a discussion post, are far too narrow for me. I can see maybe a third of the title of something I'm gonna write, and the search field is over-full sometimes. I suggest you make them a bit wider, obviously. :)

I inject this style into the website, which makes them much nicer from my perspective:

Code: Select all

input.search-block-query {
    width: 25em;
}

input.discussion-message-editor-title {
    width: 75ex;
}
Now, as I've gotten older I've found that the tiny text on many websites is a bit of a vision issue, even with glasses. Because of that I have -- among other things -- set a fairly large "minimum" font size. I don't know if that is at issue here, but it forces text to be 11pt or greater in the browser. (because Windows, that is not 11pt in the real world, just the right number of pixels high for me. ~ 22 px high.)
