I have a Glo and actually like the page numbers at the bottom, I just don't want such a large space taken up by them. However the default value leaves page x of x a little too close to the bottom for my taste. I would like to move it up a little.

I have commented out the line below "# Disable footer example" and uncommented the line below "# Decrease footer example"
I've just started playing with this patch on my Aura and it seems the only changes that I needed was, as you did, to comment out the first section and enable the second section. After doing this, the values that I need to play with for the page numbers and margin size are the last two values where I reduced the 30px to 25px and 25px to 20px to slightly reduce the margin and page number font size.

`* {\n\theight: 25px;\n\tfont-size: 20px;\n}\n\n`

I'm not sure what the effects on a Glo will be since I'm using MZ's patcher with an Aura but given the Glo has a lower screen resolution, you could try reducing the height: 30px to height: 21px and the font-size: 25px to font-size: 18px or about .7 of the original value to match the 1024/1440 screen resolution ratio. If you want a larger margin/page numbers you can try playing with those two numbers.

Regards,
David
