thanks for that might never have known it was working if you hadn't said.

just trying the add button hha yes te writings massive lol, weird site haha xxx

Just checking the add button - and you're right. the font on here is massive compared to the thread

Christine, my goodness, you're right! The Add button works! And yes, nice big font.

Maybe fewer people on the help boards will be inundating us with PMs there, with the Add button working.

I see I have mail ... we shall see. ;)

It's very strange but when you are on a thread with a deleted post, the info telling you it's been deleted is in a bigger font.

The add button now seems to work opening a box at the bottom of the page and if you type your reply in that, the font is huge.

I have just changed from 'medium' to 'larger' ... my eyesight is rotten and I did always have it set to larger on another site but the change has actually made me notice how trying it was on here. I will need to scroll a lot so may be tempted to alter it when i am in the mood to read quickly lol ...but this size will suit me ok for reading posts with lots of detail like look up requests :)

Thanks Janey, I could read it but found it a bit eye straining. Just hit control and + once and it is fine.

It is smaller.

To bump it back up, hold down the control key and hit the + key.

If you don't like what you see, hold down the control key and hit the - key.

I win on this one -- I like small font, mostly because I hate scrolling down to read things. (Scrolling at this site is all clunky and horribly slow since the last reform, at least in Firefox.) Also, I find it easier to read than the next font size up, which tends to look mashed-up.

But that meant that when I shrank the content to the font size I liked, there was useless background design taking up space on my monitor.

Now, I've increased the font one size, and the content exactly fits my monitor! I win. ;)

If you like a *bigger* font, you lose. Increasing the font size now increases the size of the content, so you have to scroll right to see all of the content in posts and threads.

I was fine the way it was, even though it works better for me now. It's the people who need larger font, to see it properly, who should be the "standard" for the site, I think, and not have the inconvenience of having to scroll left and right whenever they want to read a thread.

I'd be interested in what anybody who does need a larger font thinks about it.

Yes it's a tad smaller for me too xx

I thought the same when I posted just now, it seems smaller...??

i think mines shrunk lol xx

Has the size of the print changed on here , or is it my eyesight. ?
