» Increasing font size Options

[Bojan Drndic]

This is a great site . . . I am just getting to know it and everything is very simple and user friendly, with many useful options we did not have before.

I would suggest making the default font size bigger. I think most of us are all older people who have to use glasses and a bigger font would be more comfortable, perhaps the size we had on the old msn boards. There wouldn't be a problem if the fonts could be increased in the IE browser by selecting largest text size from the View menu . . . but my text size is set to largest and the fonts are still very small. It is especially difficult when you have to write messages with such small fonts. I know that you can increase them when you finally send the message, but the fact remains that the font size is uncomfortably small.

I'm sure this would be a far more comfortable default font size.

Cheers,
Bojan

Thanks Chris . . .

Another thing, most people will be using either their own photos or other kinds of pictures as avatars . . . so it seems that the little human figure that precedes our names is totally unecessary because it doesn't contain any useful information, in fact it doesn't seem to have any function at all. I think it is better to keep things simple because everything that does not have a function only clogs things up and creates unncessary distraction. Anywa, that's my opinion.

Hi Bojan

Actually, that little human figure has a very important presence and will be very useful when the CHAT feature is switched on. When someone is offline, it's grey, and when they are online, it's in colour!

So... it appears that the default font size in the editor is 1. What a silly bunch! I'm going to have to try and find the code for that in the style sheets and try modify it to "2" to see what difference that makes. Thanks to Cindy for the test!
