Is this better for stickies?

Does the larger font and the underline when a new post has been made in a sticky thread draw more attention to the sticky?

A lot of people have reported missing important new posts in stickies because they haven't noticed them, so this is an effort to rectify that.

Possibly could be a different colour the font to stand out more?

Although apart from that Battye you're doing a brilliant job!

Yeah it is easy to notice but we will quickly become desensitised to it...

I think the larger font works better than a different colour. With just a different colour, posters may just get used to that and still not bother, but with the larger font, I believe it stands out more.

I noticed Cirra's post in the sponsorship sticky straight away, and once read it just reverts back to normal size.
