The font toolbar on TheDailyWTF's forums

My first WTF post that wasn't a reply...
Has anybody else noticed trying to set font sizes & faces on forum posts look entirely different from the editor than they do in the actual post.
In fact, it looks like if you choose any option for font sizes or faces, the final post always looks the same, which is totally different if you don't make any changes at all.

Using any font options also messes up other skins since it changes
background but not foreground color (I used the midnight black one for
a while, and many posts ended up being white-on-white).

Remember in the late 80's/Early 90's WYSIWYG was all the rage, well, the forums use new technology: WYSIWYDG.

I vote that should be a TDWTF tshirt. Mebbe "WYSIWIG" looking printed, with the D scrawled on in red ink or something.
