My connection sucks. Have they fixed this? http://jsfiddle.net/alanhogan/twCXt/

Not sure what you mean now? I'm still on older Opera (11.61) and the checkbox is resized.

But it does not look checked, right? One should be checked. Also, clicking it has no (visual) effect (though it will toggle the checked attribute in the DOM). It’s a truly terrible bug, and a strong argument that Opera should not use -webkit- properties like transform until it can actually handle them.

I reported it a couple months ago and have not received any follow-up at all.

It is checked and checking it works as well (11.64 at home now). But as other comment pointed out, it looks ugly. I tried FF 9 - same as Opera - works and is ugly. In Chrome 19 it does not work at all (i.e. the checkbox is small).

So it got fixed. And I don't think they do follow-up unless they need you to reproduce the bug or something.

Are you on Windows? I eventually tried in Opera 12 and it does not seem to be fixed.

Now I’m not sure why you say it doesn’t work in Chrome at all. Because at least on my platform (OS X), it does, and it looks beautiful and hi-res.

Checkbox does get resized, but looks awful
