    Hi ...

    The system default size is small....

    However, most browsers are designed to solve that problem for old guys like me (I'm 61).

    Look at the top of your Internet Explorer software browser. If it's a Microsoft browser, select iew then under "Text Size", pick anything from "smallest" to "largest".

    It then scales all of the text in real time and makes it easier to read, plus it should make things fit into your screen size better. I run mine at large.

    Also and again if you're using Microsoft IE Explorer, simply hold down the CTRL key and use + and - keys to go up and down to control displayed font size on any web site....

    Most browsers have this built in...

    On Safari for the Mac, it's the Command and +/- combo...

    I create most of my posts using the [ size=2 ] function [ /size ]

    Regards,
    Badger
