Hi Everybody,

I wanted to let everybody know something just to be nice to some of our members who cant see very well.

When we write our messages it is a good idea to use a size 4 or 5 font so everyone can see it. If we are using Internet Explorer browser go to the button on the top bar and choose - Font Size -

A quick tutorial is HERE that Summer wrote with screenshots and all for Internet Explorer.

But.......

If you are using a plain text browser like a mozilla based, Firefox, SeaMonkey etc., where you dont have the options to a font buttons and stuff, then before you start typing your message in the message box, use the html command:

<

FONT size=4

>

and then when you are all done with your message the very last thing you close with is:

<

/FONT

>

and then hit send. Type your message like you would normally type a letter but just add those two commands it should work. That is what I try to do if my head is working right when I post a message. You can go ahead and copy and paste these two commands into any message you type if you are not sure you can type them exactly like I did.

To get a different than the default font the command would be:

<

FONT face="Geneva, Arial, Sans-serif" size=4

>

and then again the close would be:

<

/FONT

>

Using a font list is best so if someone doesn't have the first font it then selects the next one in the list or then defaults to the font family i.e, "serif", "sans-serif", "cursive", "handwriting" or "fantasy".

Then if you want to get really creative you can add a color to your style by typing:

<

FONT face="Geneva, Arial, Sans-serif" color=#993300 size=4

>

and again close with a simple:

<

/FONT

>

You can change the color code as you want to to fit your mood. There are alot of places to find a color chart that you can bookmark like I did HERE.

Here is an example of what the color chart looks like:
