... or is it just me?.. All of a sudden I need my magnifying glass to read the posts. The font size is normal as I type this but once it appears in the forum, it is dinky. :eek:

No HC, I think it happened in mid session. All of the forum background is the same but the post index and all within are puny.<br /><br />EDIT: I just went over to another forum. All is normal there. I think I must be getting some form of the Down Under disease.<br /><br />Now, not only everything is small, but the forum index page is slightly blurry. Everything is still Aok as I type this.

I don't use XP, so don't know if you can do this. ( I can in OS-X )<br /><br />Go into your browser settings and set a minimum type size.<br />That way, no matter wht size type they are using on a web site, it will always be that size or larger. Works for everything except pdf files, but you can zoom znd magnify those.<br />MIne is set for no smaller than 12 pt type.

Re: What has happened to the forum font size?

I'm running XP,...... If I hold the "Ctrl" button Down,.. Turning my Scroll Wheel causes the fonts to get Bigger,.. or Smaller.....<br /><br />Other than That,...... I haven't noticed Any Differences here at iboats.....<br />Except the servers seem to be S-L-O-W-I-N-G D-O-W-N A-g-a-i-n. . . . . . . . . . :rolleyes:

Yep ZmO, that did it. I must have accidently used Bondo's technique to get that way. I was about to go crazy. It was as if I had changed my resolution but only the text was tiny.<br /><br />Thanks all.

Heck, I thought everyone knew about the Ctrl and scroll wheel thingy.
