I love the layout of the MonoBook skin, but something's
amiss with the style (in the sense of stylesheets). In
the attached image (created with Netscape 7 on Unix),
you should see my problem: The boxes for forms are too
short.

More specifically:

  • In "Recent changes and stub display", the text in the

boxes is cut off at the bottom. (This effect varies a
great deal -- sometimes better than these particular
examples, sometimes worse.)

  • In "Misc settings", the checks in the checkboxes are

very small, thus hard to read. (This effect is
consistent.)

These problems don't appear with the Standard skin --
but that skin isn't laid out nearly as nicely. What
can I do to get the great page layout of MonoBook with
form boxes that I can easily read?

Dang it, I ''know'' that I've attached files before. Let's
try that again.
