I am using code to display a tag cloud based on percentage values. The first time a tag is added to my db, it appears large, and then shrinks relative to other tags (the more ti
Based on what you have shown the tag should already appear small to begin with - tagGroup.Count() would be 1 and GetTagSize will return "small"
Something must be overriding this code to force the font size large - just take that out and I think you should get what you have asked for.
I simplified your code to run it on my box. And everything seems to be OK. Here you can see my test page:

And here you can see result: ![Tag cloud][1]
I'd recommend to you to debug your code a bit and check if all numbers are correct. May be you have some problems in queries (incorrect join or something like that), because all other code works fine for me.
Hope this helps.
P.S. May be you have problem in css?
Why don't you take this:
weight = (((double)tagGroup.Count() / maxTagFrequencyNegative * 100) - 100) * -1
That way you take the largest numbers and reverse them.
