However, '%' says:" I want the text to look the size relative to my
system set up". '100%' will show as the users' default 'normal' setting.

I don't think that's entirely true. Don't percentages run off the font of
the parent object? If you set your paragraph to be 90% and your body is
90%, wouldn't that make the paragarph 90% of 90%?

Now my head hurts. I need coffee.

Yeap.
That's why we specify a common font size in the body.
If we want a smaller font size, then specify it e.g. in the paragraph.

Hello again,

I redid my old site, http://www.tambourinewebdesign.com/, which I
posted here about a month or two ago.

I've sacrificed some fluidness for design, but hope I've found the
happy medium.

The text is small, but when larger than it is, it looks a little ugly.
On the plus side, it is % and em orientated - no px - so its
resizable.

Don't hold back now, I've braced myself already!

Thanks again,
Stephen
well its better than ur previous effort but still quite basic, as r all of
the sites in ur portfolio

It is if it's specified in the body { }.
