Font size in the forum

[pebble]

Hi, I'm new here and have a question about using the forum.

On IE, the font size in the interface is too small for me to read comfortably. Is there any way I can make the fonts larger?

Thanks.

view > text size > larger or largest?

Thanks for your reply.

View>text size in IE doesn't change the font size in the forum. It probably would in Firefox, but I usually use IE except when I'm testing designs.

If you are on IE7 or Firefox 1.5 you can press ctrl++ (windows) to zoom in

I'm still using IE 6, so that may be the difference? In my browser, using view>text increases the spacing on the page, but doesn't change the font size.

IE 6 too.. no problem for me..

medium size


largest size

Hmm... curioser and curioser. Are you running on XP, ray?

I just checked my browser and system-wide display settings and don't see anything that might account for IE not changing the font size, so it has me scratching my head.

Guess I'll just use FireFox instead of going blind trying to read stuff.

Thanks!

You could use the "magnifier"
