Am I going mad, or have others noticed a change in Google tonight? The font is larger and the buttons are different??

Seems normal to me... :?

But then I generally use the Google search bar in the top-right of the browser, so rarely do I go to the Google homepage these days.

Meh, odd.

I've lost my nice Safari buttons and I've got some hideous PC looking square buttons.

The bigger font is a win though.

Looks same as ever here.

Well it used to look the same in both FF and Safari.

Now in FireFox:

And in Safari:

It's not immediately obvious, but the font on the input is much bigger in Safari.

Either this is something that's changed with the latest update to Safari which I didn't notice until now, or I've changed a setting somewhere. :?

In Safari Google looks like the first picture for me...

Try resetting the zoom - Cmd + 0.

Probs just need to delete your cookies or eat them.

It's gone back to the bigger font and strange buttons again.

I've got used to it now though and I definitely prefer the larger font. The buttons look like a monkey's arse though.

I've seen a couple of news articles about it, it seems they have had a "minor" revamp of the home page...

So why isn't anyone else seeing it, then? :?

I'm seeing it now, but only on Google.co.uk, not .com. I don't like it. [LIFTED] monkey-arse buttons. :(
