Don't like the new format?

Post by El Chivo »

You can change the display in the control panel.

I changed over out of curiosity and the alternative is a large print version that I like better.

Just thought I'd mention it for those who haven't had time to get to know the system.

Cool. I do like Subsilver better... though the fontsize is still the same size for me.

This is much better.
Btw, if you are using Firefox, hold down the control key and hit the plus or minus key to enlarge or shrink the display font.

sobenk,
Thanks. I just went in and changed it from Prosilver to Subsilver2. Now my avatars are on the left as they should be and my pics fit again. I couldn't find where to increase the font read size so I did that with my mouse roller.

Hold down the control button on your keyboard and use the scroll wheel on your mouse to go up or down in size. That's quick, easy and applicable most everywhere.

thanks for the notice. I don't have a scroll wheel so I don't know how to change the font. Wish we had a go to previous topic like before.

here's a format tip for firefox browsers. go to edit|preferences, then click the content tab, then click the color button, then uncheck the "allow pages....." radio button.

for eyesight like mine it makes the pages much more readable because the contrast is better.

I imagine there's a similar feature in other browsers.

refresh the page to see the differences.

the downside? the edit button disappears... so it's not that great an idea...

And where that doesn't work, holding down the control button and clicking the "+" or the "-" key will adjust the font size up or down as well. Hobie's trick doesn't work with my browser/mouse/keyboard combo, but the the one I just posted does...

Thanks for the help, but neither one worked for me (ctrl and the mouse wheel or ctrl and the + or - key). I am getting used to the new format tho, so long as I get my dose of leverguns I guess font size doesn't matter much! Thanks anyway.
