and my site is
http://takemyhand.debutantlyts.com
if you wanna see what i'm talking about...

The difference between a size 9 and 10 pixel font is usually veeery hard to notice, but I took a quick look at your site and you aren't using the <p> tags that you defined. Use the <p> tag to start/end text so that your text has the properties you set in your stylesheet.

CODE

<p>so i just found cuter smilies and it took me forever to change them! i had to go edit all my posts and delete all the old ones too :/ and then i had to go through the comments and delete the ones with smilies in them (<- those are cuter though, don't you think? xD) while editing my posts, i probably missed some :/ so if you see something like , then yeah i missed it xD lmao. my eyes aren't good? lol jk xD</p>

Just to clarify, what's the issue? The way you asked was a little confusing.

Just to clarify, what's the issue? The way you asked was a little confusing.

i wanted the fonts in my site to be the same size.
in the codes, it says its 9px but on the site it shows like its 8px?
and yeah i know its kinda confusing :/

These are ALL your codes?, because I don't see any php in there.

you want to see them ALL? thats kinda a lot of pages o.O
how bout i show one? they're mostly the same anyways, with different content in them.

CODE

<?php include('header.php'); ?>
<div class="mainheader">twilight graphics</div>
<center>
i made all of these <b>100%</b> so please don't <s>jock</s>! want these on your page? the box under the graphic is the code for it (: so just copy and paste it and put it where ever you like =] <i>newest</i> on <u>top</u>(;<br><br>
