Right Folks. To start Chris is a mate of mine, I first met him at an AGM.
So our "battle is more like "banter"
Now then, I am not as young as most of you, now suffering stigmatism and the usual eyesight probs of older folks.
I cannot speed read these pages to filter out stuff Im not interested in during that particular visit.
Also, I need sharp contrast, the light grey and blue/grey (that's how they look to me) backgrounds make it harder to read.
Some of you say change screen res, for my apps I use 1152 * 864.
Which is fine for the BVS site and others including eBay.
Yes the phpbb forums do use the same fonts, I find them very hard to read.
Kate and qdos, I am bit more "computer literate" than many users, I have worked in DOS, done a bit of BASIC programming, built PCs, installed M.S.OSs and progs.
But nowadays Im not so adventurous and do struggle a bit with the net and other bits of S/Ware.
AND I do know how to change screen res, BUT it's another chore
asharpe and qdos, yes it is the browser limitation, I.E. View/Text size does not work with phbpp.
Looks like timpootle agrees with me
The problem is, the very nice person who set up the phpbb forums did not enable the M.S.I.E. View bit in the Menu bar
This is my first posting, and I find this panel/wndow really hard work to read what I am typing.
So Iv tried to enable a larger font in the posting, see if it works !
dargles, ever tried using Windoze magnifier !
Chris thanks for the link to this page.
