Larger font size?
Hello Mods! Just getting back to spending a bit of time on KDXRIDER as I finally bought a KDX! (It's theoretically for my son, but just in case he doesn't want it...) Anyway, one of things I noticed when I joined a couple of years ago was how small the font was on all the posts which made it really hard to read. Now my eyes being two years older it is even harder! It does help to change to the "print" format or highlight the text, but it would sure be nice to see a bit larger type if it was possible. Not complaining or whining mind you, just a friendly suggestion. Thanks!

Have you tried changing the resolution on your monitor?

It makes it bigger?
It should merely backlight (hilight) the existing text..not make it bigger. Clicking on <Edit> and <Select All> will do the same thing to the whole page. Without using the mouse, <ALTL+E>, <A> will do the same thing.
You can click on <View> <TextSize> and select from <smallest> to <largest>.

It won't DO anything...but it might make you feel better.
You're welcome!
Glad I could help.

Carvr has been into the apple martinis again I see. It always gives me pleasure when HE'S the one getting corrected. Specially after HE just got done correcting me in earlier posts!! Ha! Ha! Ha!!
My only complaint is it doesn't change my avitar size.

Time to get with the times CC.... IE7 is your friend.... Tabbed browsing is great.
And no... I don't care that some other browser had it first...

I'm using FireFox and this magnification feature works PERFECT!!
Please notice that I never said you were either wrong OR needed correcting; just that I was happy to see someone do it to YOU!! Ha!!! HaW!!
So how's the CRT monitor doing? Still running in Black and White too?

IE7 sucketh most huge. Tabbed browsing sucketh exceedingly more greater.
I had it on this machine. I dumped it.
I couldn't hear a THING anytime I got CLOSE to this machine..the huge sucking sound eminating from the guts of the PC drowning out anything/everything else.....
CRT? Monitor? Huh?
I use a text rendered 5-bit (Baudot) TTY-40.
There could be one thing worse than IE7..that would be FireFux.
ActiveX? Huh? Whut? Whutami 'spose to do wid DAT?
Go ahead. Ask me what I think about it!!!
