:Okay, i did indeed reign in the h2 headlines so that there's not as much space between letters.  This will reduce the effective size of the top-level header by 2/5ths.  As for collission, I still don't see what you're talking about.  I've zoomed in and out to the full extent of both Safari and Firefox, and I get '''no''' collision at all.  Here's a pic of the sort of "average zoom" level for you to compare with your own results.  If your browser isn't giving something like this result, then it may be an indication that you, somehow, haven't actually cleared your cache. {{user:CzechOut/Sig}}&nbsp;<span style="{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}}">'''22:43:33 Wed&nbsp;'''23 Mar 2011&nbsp;</span>

::Hey, thanks for the screenshot so quickly.  I'm not seeing any problems with it though.  I don't detect any sort of collision in the screenshot.  Oh, wait there is a tiny area of collision at your name in the upper right, isn't there?  Okay, let me ask you this.  Is this the ''normal'' zoom in Chrome?  Or have you zoomed in a bit?  And if you've zoomed, how have you done so?  See, in Firefox, you ''can'' get into trouble when you choose to zoom "text only".  By the very name of the command, it should be obvious that "zoom text only" means that you're distorting the text versus the rest of the page.  If you uncheck that selection, and then zoom ''the whole page'' in or out '''in proportion''', you'll never get collision.  At least not so far as I can detect.  I spent a lot of time on the wikia header bar checking for just this problem, and as far as I can see it's a robust design.  Neither I nor any programmer can code things to prevent a page from strange effects when the text and page sizes are ''deliberately'' changed by the user to be out of synch with one another.  Go to ''any'' Wikia wiki page, try the trick of Firefox zooming with text only, and you'll be disappointed by the results.  Obviously, you're using Chrome, not Firefox, but you should check to see ''how'' you're zooming.  ~~
