Why is My Freerepublic Text So Small?
Free Republic ^ | 02-25-02 | Either me or John Robinson

Posted on 02/25/2002 5:07:17 PM PST by AAABEST

Why is the main page on FR so small? The sidebar text is fine, but the text in everywhere else (including articles) is tiny.

Is it me or did something change?

1. Hold down your CTRL key on your keyboard.
2. Keep it held while scrolling the wheel on your mouse upwards.

It also works in reverse.

Have you tried adjusting "Text Size" under the View menu option?

Are your glasses on backwards? Did a loved put your monitor on the other side of the room?

If you're using Windows Internet Explorer, click on View in the menu bar, then on Text Size, and then select a larger size.

Your just slouching down further in your chair as the night progresses making the screen look smaller. Happens to me once in a while.

Everything changed size for me too - since I went to running 'Opera' and got rid of Netscrape -

Your just

What is a 'just' - is something wrong with his 'just'?

Would a thorough thrashing of the computers' sound system do any good here?

It's not that the text is so small. It's that the daily dose of truth has widened your eyes so vastly that the text merely seems small, because it is out of proportion to your iris and newfound knowledge!!

Really!! I'll bet my medical degree upon it !!!

So, on your browser, choose View, Text Size, and the Largest.

But beware... there are more truths to follow.

You're conserving bandwith when using smaller fonts. Thanks.
