Had a request for a little larger font on the board posts ... such as what you're reading here. I'm curious to see if others would like things a little bigger. It'll mean that you'll have to scroll some more, but if the majority would like it, I'll be happy to change smile

Please vote! Stay the same, or bigger font?

If the larger font means what you just posted in, that looks great.

Being in the computer industry, I always need to see a very pressing need in order to make a change. Those darn unintended consequences!!! I say keep the font the same.

I would hope the younger board members with their clear vision and steady hand would give us oldtimers a much needed break on this one. Where to you a change of font would be inconvenient, to us it's borderline critical.

And to suggest that we change the monitor resolution on the family computer where many members play games at high resolutions is not practicle.

So take a walk in our shoes (or better yet, wearing our increasingly ineffective bifocals). help

Bob,

The current font size is fine for me. However, having said that I do and require reading glasses (dang, where are those glasses)empathizing with those that would like to go up in font size.

Flat panel, flat screen, or a just a standard 21" monitor?

I use the Vision^H^H^H^H^H^HApple 17" Flat Panel display at work. Flat panels are the only way to go!

I have a 17" flat screen and I'm 68 and can see my screen very well. These fonts are good enough for me. If you all have trouble seeing the print size get better glasses. I've changed font size on my computer from my end and didn't like the size. So instead of Bob Changing his from this to bigger do it on your own machine.

Looks like I'll probably bump up one notch on the size ... but it'll be after I get everything switched over wink
