To me, it looks like browser devs have been experimenting with new ways of rendering text without knowing what they where doing.

Because i think IE7 and Safari’s ways of rendering text is ugly, and i dont think the devs knew what they where doing when using it in official releases.

But perhaps its still unofficially in the “beta stage”, for some reason devs have a hard time admitting when somthing they made sucks.

Let alone the way some browsers render text-shadow, witch usually just makes the text harder to read.. /sigh

Text-shadow works great under Safari 3, but in Opera 9.5a1 it doesn’t.

Yeah, I have to agree. Text-shadow was ok in navigation menu. What bugs me is those green headings with grey shadow. At least on my (old) monitor they are pretty hard to read.

And Opera 9.5 is incredibly fast and most importantly it is stable. Few bugs here and there. Nice job Opera!

Yes I agree with Lars, you should bring back the text-shadow!
And I do the same when I’m on a windows computer, the first thing i do is ether change there resolution to it’s native res (on LCD’s) and put clear type on. :)

I really liked the text-shadow in the menu, now it’s back to being flat.

It only looked a bit bad if you didn’t have font smoothing enabled, but all text looks like crap without font smoothing so I don’t see what the big deal is. I really can’t stand using Windows without Cleartype these days.

The shadowed menus look great when you have font smoothing on.

Oh well, guess I’ll have to make a user stylesheet to return the nice stuff.

You are, of course, right, however, css3 is not “official” yet either so who cares? :P
