Oh, that's why it showed larger user names. I thought something messed up and I put it back to how it was. I guess I should put them back seeing you're doing a test.

But IMO larger usernames look ugly as hell. I hated them from when vBulletin implimented them in the beginning.

Granted, they aren't too bad if you're using the top postbit. But if you're using the left one, they are really bad. Especially if someone has a long name. It throws the formatting of the left column out really badly [either makes the column wider if the name has no spaces or puts the name on two lines if it does have spaces] and just looks like an eyesore.

Maybe an option would be to impliment them on the top postbit only [but maybe a little smaller, as 14pt is still too big IMO, maybe 12pt] if people really like them. But I would definately say it's a no-no for the left one for reasons I already said.
