Default Is There a New Font Look Here?

Hey Bernie,

Lately, I've become font-concious....because of odd occurrences with my postings strangely shrinking in size ....so today everything looks different....bigger print, etc. Am I again seeing things only I can see??? Or is this a new thing? :-o;)

Hi Marky,

Yes, today I'm experimenting with a slightly larger size font. If people don't like it then I'll switch it back.

However the changing fonts you had earlier seems to be more on your computer and possibly the way you copied and pasted. I promise I had nothing to do with it

Or the children's menu

Seriously, if enough people don't like it I'll switch it back. I have a pretty severe vision impairment so I tend to lose track of how large things may look for others. Let me know.

Bernie: I appreciate the larger size print VERY much. Squinting at the old print used to give me a headache, so thanks.

Belgium votes: no! :oops: I use the decrease function in Firefox to go back to the old style. But I don't wear glasses, maybe for other people it's an improvement.

My apologies to everyone, but I had to revert the font to its original size as it was causing display problems on some browsers. Wasn't aware of it till today. It was literally a one point difference, but apparently it has a huge impact on some systems... can you say Windows? One day it will be an all Mac world!
