I don't know if this applies to other browsers, but with Firefox you can use "Ctrl +" to increase the font size & "Ctrl -" to decrease it. "Ctrl 0" (that's a zero) will reset to the original size. This includes text that you are typing. There are also a few Firefox extensions that will give you toolbar buttons to change the font size.

Heh...I don't think shrinkinig the font size is an option for me.

Its bad enough the current sizeis about right for me to see. If I shrink them any further I am gonna be making love to my monitor!!

So I guess I'll have to live with this scrolliing left to right business on an 600x800 res with text size set to larger.

FWIW, those options were the same on the old board- fonts were bigger there and easier to read...AND no scrolling.

I've heard it all before that 600x800 is not optimum viewing...it is for me as I have a 15 inch monitor and severe vision issues related to small fonts. Razz

On another note...Why is there no "Remember Me" option on the login screen? Or did I miss it?

Jury is out on if I like this set up....

The glasses do help. So do large monitors.

Also, if you're up to the latest thingy for mousing around,,,
The Laser Mouse (Optical Wheel Mouse) then you can hold down your left Ctrl key whilst you move your mouse wheel forward or backward to increase or decrease the text size on your screen.

I just tried the Ctrl + and Ctrl -
thing, and that too, worked perfectly well.

NO ONE has to put up with tiny print on any text screen, whether it's LG forums or your eMail.

Cheers,
The Shadow Cool
