Trying to find something to make the fonts on Ancestry less blurry so I can actually use the site since they revamped, and this did the exact opposite. Everything is so blurry, it's not possible to read anything and my eyes are watering. Might help on some sites, but not Ancestry. Yikes!

Awesome. Just works without flashing the style on initial load. (y)
