All Things Small Web

I think I know what's going on with your CSS! Thing is, "em" is a relative size, and it's relative to the parent element, which means that if you have, say, your paragraphs in 1.5em, a link set to 1em inside a paragraph will display as 1.5 x 1 = 1.5em size. If you want to have a size relative to the base of the page and not have this multiplicative effect, you can use "rem" instead =)
