How do they look in your browser?

I think the amazing thing to me is that they all show almost exacly the same thing in my browser, although I believe others swear they are different. ?? - Marshman 18:41, 16 December 2005 (UTC)
Well, my monobook.css uses a list of font priorities (which Firefox goes down for each character to be displayed), and Tahoma is first, and Arial Unicode MS is further down. (I briefly forgot that I used the {{unicode|template}} to make the {{okina}} template, so my Wikipedia account custom style sheet's fonts are irrelevant here. - Gilgamesh 13:49, 20 December 2005 (UTC)) The ‘ and ʻ look different to me. In your list, items #1, #2 and #5 look the same as each other, and items #3, #4, #6, #7 and #8 look the same as each other. - Gilgamesh 13:42, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
