The font size
Is anyone elses font extrememly small now? It was normal yesterday, and now its insanely small. I saw Tony post about controlling the font size with your browser, but when I do that, every other site I visit, the font is WAY too big. Could you at least change the default font size to about this? Right click, save target as or copy/paste.

Re: The font size
At home on my PC it was normal size but here at work now on my Mac it's smaller. It's not too small though, but definitely smaller than it was at home. Lucky thing I've got 20/20 vision though.

Re: The font size
If you have your browser setting at "medium" font size, go visit any other popular automotive message boards and our font is exactly the same size as theirs. I set it that way yesterday.

Re: The font size
I'm running my laptop at 1280x1024 and this font size is perfect
If it's too small maybe some people need glasses? :p
When it was changed yesterday to make it look bigger it looked like it was specially designed for old people w/poor vision much better w/current size font
Site's starting to grow on me again Just took a bit of getting used to

Re: The font size
I went to the site that Nineball linked and the font size was nornal. But the font on this site is way small. The other 10 boards I visit are normal also. What am I doing wrong?

1. What browser do you use?
2. Does ubb.mfba.org appear normal size?
If ubb.mfba.org appears normal size then the browser your using is not handling cascading style sheets correctly... fonts in .threads appear to be handled using some CSS definitions whereas ubb.classic uses the standard HTML designation...
Both this site and ubb.mfba.org use verdana size 10 as default with arial as the failover incase verdana isn't on the computer....
So the key issue here appears to be the browser not handling cascading style sheets correctly....
