Well ive been makeing a skin and in the process of getting text to fit in windows right (witch im still not 100% happy with) i think i some how messed up the size of the warning messages and i cant figure out what sets it. Any one have any ideas? I feel like such a noob..but yet i am lol.Here's a pic of what im talking about, the pic might not look so bad but to me its huge and i dont like it,its like its in 600x800

First thing I would try is resetting the resolution. Set it to 800 x 600 and then change it back to what you prefer. There is a bug in the OS that could be causing it. Rebooting should fix it as well. Hope it helps.

nope switched resolution,witch rebooted after changeing and i also rebooted once too.Its still large unless completly turning off WB then turning it back on might work? Also i didnt mention this befor but its only with the skin i made, i switch to an other skin and its normal with out rebooting.Im sure it has something to do with the font settings but im not sure what setting changes it or maybe a window caption size? I was messing with a lot of font settings trying to get the text to look right in the minamized window frame,the ones like in psp when you minamize them to the bottom.The text is very small but looks good in the other windows,witch i dont understand eather.

System fonts must be set to a negative setting. such as -16, -18. etc or problems will arise. It was 5 am for me, I should have caught that. LOL
