How do I change the font size? Vista bites.
I tried the top toolbar and moved it up from microscopic, to merely miniscule.
Other sites (that shall not be named) have controls to enable computer illiterate folks (like me) to be able to read their monitors.

hey tom I don't know about Vista, but on my XP, if I right click on the desktop, it opens a window with "graphics options" in the menu. click that, click the up/down arrow and move it to 800 x 600 and hit apply. If Vista doesn't work like that, depending on the video driver you have, there might be an icon on the bottom of the screen on the right, drag the mouse across the icons (next to the clock/calender) and see if any are video icons. Probably a right click and then hit properties. Otherwise, go to My Computer and find the video icon there. Hope at least one of these suggestions applies to Vista.

I can inflate the body of text with Vista tool bar. The controls like: return to home page, to furum jump remain microscopic :-(

Tom, there is no board setting for font size, but you can change it in your web browser. In Internet Explorer try VIEW > TEXT SIZE.

Tom, there is no board setting for font size, but you can change it in your web browser. In Internet Explorer try VIEW > TEXT SIZE. Yea did that, it adjusts the text size in the body of messages. The control that lets me select to quote your post remains about size 4, it really is microscopic...

It is. I thought I read somewhere that the next revision of the ProBoards software will have the ability to customize font size. Unfortunately for now though, there's not much you can do. Sorry Tom.

I use the browser, Opera, and can increase or decrease font sizes by holding down Ctrl and pressing the + or - sign.
