the bullet itself can’t really be sized. it’s almost always easier to replace it with an image.

the bullet is controlled by
```
li {
list-style-type:
}
```
more info:

generally, what i do is this:
```
li {
list-style-type: none;
background: url('custombullet.gif') no-repeat 0 50%;
padding-left: 20px;
}
```
which deletes the bullet, and inserts my own image.

the default theme, kubrick, does it differently:
```
li:before {
	content: "0BB 020";
	}
```
they’re still using list-style-type: none; but they’re using advanced CSS to add their own character (the right angle quote). you can also substitute something simpler, like
content: "-";

you can even use
content: url(custombullet.gif);

but that stuff doesn’t work on IE6.
