I was impressed with the quality and effort you put into it;
but I don't use Desktop Linux, so I have no further comment.

I think you're -very- well educated, very literate.
While I appreciate that, still, we're quite different, you and I;
I'm more into programming, you're more into "general education".

You told me:
> For text and images PNGs will serve you best.

Right, I agree, thanks for helping me realize that.
We agree on something ! !  Imagine that.

StatCounter doesn't work, sorry.

I take the raw logs, filter out the bots, and look at that.
For me, bots outnumber humans 5 to 1, or some such.

And the bots are hard to filter out.
Bots pretend to be humans, and people hide their identities.

When a visitor is obviously human, well identified,
with a resonable IP address ( I check )... 
then, and only then, do I count it as "a hit".

It's a fine art, and it requires much manual effort;

FireFox just redirects; X.EXE should too, I suppose.

If it's a folder, and not a file, you need the slash.
"OSXZoom" is not a file.

Suppose you want larger text everywhere, all the time,
whenever you reboot... how do you do that ?

In Win8, you change the "eb,ff,ff,ff" ( 0xffeb, -21 pixels high ), below,
merge it with the registry, and then reboot.
It's more fucked up than Desktop Linux... oh well.

From: "Jeff-Relf.Me/Win_8_.REG.TXT":

  [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop\WindowMetrics]
  ;  This sets font sizes but, sadly, not the font faces.
  ; "DejaVu LGC Sans Mono", -25 px, 96 (185) dpi ( 2160 x 3840, 24 Inch, scaled 150% ).
  ;  Defined in "struct tagLOGFONT".
