WebKit browsers - strange menu text rendering - NSP related?

Hello,
I noticed a text-rendering/aliassing issue in webkit browsers. The main menu text gets very bold, and then it reverts back to the normal display. Hard to describe... It happens on a regular basis and seems to be related to the NSP slideshow animation interval. It looks really weired and unprofessional. I have seen the same "flickering" in other templates as well.

Please, see screenshots.

NORMAL, THINNER text, when slideshow images disappear:

BOLD and very SMOOTH text, when slideshow images are shown:

Hi

Can You please show me Your site ?

I have no current site with a gavick template in use.
Please, see and compare the screenshots in previous post. The difference is clearly visible! This happens in other templates as well. i.e. fashion, apps pro.

As I mentioned, this effect seems to occur in all webkit browsers (and MacOS X). Is it a feature-bug with font rendering in OSX or just a webkit issue? The funny thing is, that it "flickers" in an interval. Always when something is animated in NSP.

Hi

You are right. I've never seen that before. Looks like google fonts got conflicted with some javascript. I'll show that to programmers.

Hi

I've found a similar bug report from today, so programmers are probably working on it already. Thank You for reporting that.

Hi

I got a confirmation that bug was found and fix will be available in a newest update.
