I hate it...

I preferred the old size.

Looks the same to me in IE8. Probably because I have the Ignore font sizes specified on webpages option checked.

No, I love it

dont mind...text tends to be a touch small on most websites actually. Luckily most websites have abandoned the "8px verdana" efforts common a couple of years ago.

What are we talking about here? I don't see anything different on the Google site

Yeah, not a fan, but I pretty much only use the search bar in Safari now so I never see it.

Thought it was my browser Not liking it to be honest

Radish™

Same i thought i did that scroll thingy and accidently made it bigger.

yeah same I was pressing control and moving mouse wheel to see if I had done it!

not liking it...this happens the same day I set Bing as my homepage...fate?

Not really bothered one way or another.

I prefer the smaller text

I knew something was wrong with it. Kept trying to resize it in the browser, but failed. Glad to see I wasn't going completely insane..

Actually seeing it in use, I'd say I like it.

my resolution is too high for me to notice/care

Running 1920x1080 and hate it.

I hope there will be a greasemonkey script to change it... it's annoying.

But as I use Bing for everything now, I don't really notice it.

Running at 1920 by 1200 and I LOVE the few font size.

+1, although it is Opera.

I'm already used to it.

I preferred the old size too.

I like the new size personally.

I just wish Google.co.uk would put the "Google Search" and "Feeling Lucky" buttons on the suggestions dropdown like what they do on the Google.com version

I hate it to be honest. If it ain't broken don't try and fix it. Very lame change.

I don't like this either Silly change that wasn't needed.

I hate so it much, looks ugly but then Google's products never have been design efficient. Google has been "playing" with their pages lately. Changing colors first, then font sizes, showing slightly different search results than my local Google domain.

What am I missing? Seems the same for me...

Ah I see it. It's only available on Google.com at the minute, not on the regional sites (i.e. .co.uk, etc). I don't really have a problem with the font, but the fact that the search buttons float at the bottom of the suggestion list sucks.

On a minor sidenote, I've got a HTML validator built into my Firefox. How does the google.com front-page page fail validation with 99 errors?
</offtopic>

This is what i see, larger font:

You will all end up loving it next week.

its on google.co.uk for me.

and google have never really cared about page validation, I dont think the front page has been valid for a Loooooong time

I don't google through the homepage, so it doesn't really bother me.

But if I did, it would.

First the PS3 and now Google. I HATE LARGE FONT!!!

Sucks so much, i dont like it at all, the logo looks a lot smaller now, and for some reason it doesnt feel that is centered (thats just me probably).

But yeah, lame change, didnt notice till i saw this topic tho (search bars ftw)

Mines still normal?

I don't hate it.

I just don't like it lol. I thought it was my computer at first

Hi...
I am marry here.So I like your idea of taking poll like this way.Well as per my point of view i don't have any problem with that type of font of Google,but i don't mean that everybody should think like this way.All have their thoughts.Thank you for sharing the comment...

fine by me.

I love the new size. I just think it looks better and is now consistent with the location bar in Google Chrome.

The only problem is that the logo now needs to be made bigger; it doesn't look right now.

I'm on 14' LCD (Laptop)..... so bigger font seems to look better for me

What I hate are the new squared buttons. Very un-Mac-like.

It's funny, because those square buttons are native Mac buttons.

+1

Will help me move to bing though.

I think it looks ugly and out of place, the only sensible reason I can see for doing this is for people with poor eyesight, but they would be using a higher DPI or high-contrast theme. Which to my mind just makes this change silly.



Same, another reason to not use Google as much for me.

HELL NO!

Something that minor will make you change to Bing?!

Why don't you use the search bar at the top of right of your browser. You'll never see the Google front page again.

Where is the "I dont see it long enougth to care" option

It's fugly

It seems they have made the width of the textbox smaller and I love it even more now. I used to think Google Search was ugly... I still don't think it looks any where near as nice as Bing but this is an improvement and I actually think it looks okay now, especially as the textbox is now consistent with Google Chrome's location bar (size, font).

Yes.
