I am 66, and I can tell you that reading this size 8 font is a pain. And it causes mis-spellings because the letters run together late at night on the monitor with tired old eyes. Someday, before you even realize, you will be in your 60's 70's etc. and you "will" experience this guys, so give us a break, were not shouting. I do not choose to type in capital lettering, for the good of all of you, but it is tough. I could type in larger font, but then I still have to read your replies in tiny font, so what's the use. <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />A couple of thing that can help with tiny fonts. You can make the text bigger on the screen by using a lower resolution, i.e. 800x600 instead of 1024x768. You can also get a larger monitor size and for the same resolution have the text appear larger. You can also do both. I use a 19" lcd monitor which is equivalent to a 20" crt monitor. <br />Enjoy <br />Paul <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Or, in IE, go to Tools->Internet Options, click "Accessibility," and check the box next to "Ignore font sizes specified on web pages." Then you can use View->Text Size->Larger/Largest to increase the font size. <br /> <br />Better yet, download Firefox (http://www.mozilla.org) The View->Text Size->Increase/Decrease works without having to change anything, and you can increase or decrease the size as much as you need (without being restricted by the pre-set "largest" size, for example).
