Jumped on here this evening to find the default font size a little larger, and as I write a reply the font is big and heavy. Is David catering to this site's demographics of predominantly elderly gentlemen with poor eyesight? lol Or is this happening at my end? When I change the font size it reverts back when I hit 'open post' or 'back to index'. I haven't changed any settings at this end.

'open post' should read 'open thread'.

If you're using Internet Explorer 7, go to the 'Page' button located near the top right of the screen. There will be the 'Home' button, 'Print' button, and then the 'Page' button. Using the drop down menu, select 'Text Size' and then 'Medium', which should be the default size.

There might be a short cut for this which you have accidently hit, who knows?

Cheers,

Mark.

Don't use IE but your idea could still be right. Although I wouldn't have thought that changing something in settings would override the font feature on this website?

in firefox, tools/options/content

Sometimes when I have been enlarging the fonts with control and the moouse wheel I find same prob when I go to this site and start writing. You can try same same to reduce the size of the font.

owen

Yeah, I'm using firefox. I'll check it out. As I mentioned in the above reply, I would think the font size option on this site would override settings?
