Actually, the text size has remained the same. You might want to check your browser.

Text Size

The text size is the same on both my office and my home computer--much too small. The problem is I CAN'T INCREASE THE SIZE. "Largest" is the same as "Smallest".

I am not able to comfortably read posts anymore. I think I'll back off visiting until somebody gets this cleared up.

Bye for now.

I hate to tell ya, but it's not changing. There is nothing to clear up.

You need to check your browser, clear your cache and cookies and check your text sizes, and you should be fine. The text is the same size at it has always been.

Is the resolution or something tuned down? I will swear that the text is smaller. Maybe it's an optical illusion related to the movement of the headers?


I really noticed this when Top told me to stop posting political stuff and I went to USPoliticsOnline, which was updated to 3.0 before DTR. I will swear that the text got smaller.

Also, when I compare a fresh DTR print-out compared to one I made a week ago, the new text is smaller... Maybe same fontsize, but I'll swear that it's smaller.


Just doing my best to give you high blood pressure Jack. Make no mistake, we love you guys no matter what you do. Thank you for maintaing the site.

Jack, I hate to break the news to you but the text size ain't the same here. I have no idea what "check the browser, clear your cache, etc." means. I use two different computers--home with a cable modem and at work with DSL. The text size problem is the same on both. My eyes hurt. No more, I give up.

Maybe we can help. What browser are you using? If you're using Internet Explorer, to clear your cache and cookies go to Tools> Internet Options> General> There you will see "Temporary Internet Files" section. There is a button for "Delete Cookies" and for "Delete Files", click on both. you will have to sign in to this site with your user name and password the next time you get on here.

Next in IE browser window, click on View> Text Size and select at least Medium. Or if you have a mouse with a scroll wheel, press and hold the "ctrl" button on the keyboard while moving the wheel "up". Hope this helps.
