YUI Fonts: updated Dashboard Widget
I got an email this week from Nate Koechley regarding YUI Fonts and my dashboard widget. To quote him:
In the forthcoming release of YUI I’m providing new conversion numbers for YUI Fonts that provide more precision. The underlaying Fonts package hasn’t changed, so if people use these new percents immediately they will have better results cross browser (no need to wait for new YUI release).
So I made a new version of my dashboard widget incorporating these new numbers, and added some cool new features along the way. More browsers are now sampled, and you can choose which ones you want to display. You can also select how much transparency should be applied. Credit to Whit for that idea.
