Request - Please increase the Font and post size

This would increase usability and probably your user numbers. The font is too small and so are the posts. I know that you can zoom but that is not acceptable to improving  the board.


I urge others to make the same request.

I like it the way it is.  I don't think increasing font, and post sizes would do any good at all.  I think that'd look tacky...

If you go to your display preferences, the first option lets you select a default stylesheet and there are some options there that say "Large Fonts" at the end of the name. If you select one of those, it will increase the font size. Alternately, you can click directly below that where it says "Custom style?", and paste in this code:

Code:
table, th, td, .forumtitle {font-size: 14pt !important}



That will increase the font size for any stylesheet. You can change the "14pt" part to any size.

I see we have some retrograde people who think small font and decreased ease of use is a positive feature. They are obviously wrong.

Hows about thanking the person above you who just solved your problem completely?

Also, retrograde. Lol

Dude what about ctr + bothers you, its literally so easy and gets you exactly what you want. Im not against large font, im against forcing it on anyone, or fobidding, i think ideally everyone can choose themselves. This is generally a good way to go, in politics as well.

Lol, the fonts aren't that even small.  You're the only one who seems to be having any "decreased ease of use" ...:shrug:

Shhhhh 1234, how dare you insinuate that he doesn't know what's best for everyone!!!

It will only destroy what you are not.

I personally hate large font and think the default is perfect. Like 1234go said, I think oversized font looks tacky. More scrolling for the same amount of reading.

I have very poor eyesight and the default size is still easily readable for me.

I almost exclusively use the shroomery on a phone.

I think your problem is a niche problem, which ythan gave you an easy solution for. It's quite clear the majority prefer the current size and therefore changing it would be a mistake.

I know that I should know better than to respond to anyone who starts off a reply or refers to anyone with the word "dude".

You can switch the level of discussion and refuse to adress my perfectly valid point. But that just opens up a second discussion and has no bearing on the first. And its quite beside the point, as a non native english speaker I can say I use that ironically
