Not sure why it looks the way it does but the fonts this forum uses looks really odd in Linux. All other pages that I go to on the web look fine, just this site.

The font family is:
font-family: arial,verdana,geneva,lucida,'lucida grande',arial,helvetica,sans-serif and the font-style is italic. Don't know what Linux is picking from the list.

I changed the fonts in Firefox to see if that any effect on the page being displayed, it did not. I am at a lose really as to what is causing it.

I did install some true type fonts like verdana, and arial. Everything looks fine now.
