Font size on the forum

[Alana]

The larger the text size the better for me. :)

Same here :) I was pleasantly surprised this morning to discover the change.

Yerp... too large for me! (27). Using zoom out just makes the small text.. way too small... !

It's not just a question of font size: there's also screen resolutions to take into account. Make the font too big, and then people with low screen res will complain that the text is too big and makes everything cramped, while those with high screen res will say it's still too small. Then throw in age/vision differences, and it's a lost cause. Impossible to make everyone happy, which is of course the goal for us poor neglected web designers. :P

This is exactly why browsers have the Ctrl/Cmd +/- thing to change the font size!

Aaahhh thank you guys!! I was having trouble reading the small fonts!

On my Mac, the shortcut is 'Cmd' and '-'

It was "Command" and "+" for me! :D
