I Can't Read the Text!

If you have problems reading the text because you think it is too small then you may be viewing the forum in a larger pixel resolution. Try doing this:

That is a good question and I should post a thread about it, but for now. Put your browser to view text at 'Medium' then go to your Control Panel by doing the following:

1. Click 'Start'
2. Point to 'Settings'
3. Click on 'Control Panel'
4. Look for 'Dispaly' icon and double click on it
5. On the tabs choose 'Settings'
6. Look for 'Screen Area' and adjust it to 800 by 600 pixels
7. Your screen will flutter and then ask if to keep these settings... click 'Yes'
8. You will then see the forum the way it is supposed to look.

Hope that helps!

Good News for Dial-Up Users and Wide Screen Users!

Use the 'Dial-Up Users' Skin for larger text!

First of all, let me define 'skin'. A skin is the way the forum looks. So on the is forum we have two skins or two ways for the forum to look. What is unique about 'skins' is they not only change colors, but text, pictures and features change too! The only thing that remains is the actual content of the forum.

Q. What is the purpose of having more than one skin?
A. To enable certain features of the forum to be emphasized for members with difficulties as per example below.

We installed a skin called 'Dial-up Users'. You can select this skin via your profile under the link called, 'Skin and Languages'. The purpose of the new skin is to help in the following aspects:

1. Dial-up users who have slow connections can now load the pages much faster as all the 'fancy' stuff has been taken out.
2. Users with larger than 800 x 600 resolution can have a full screen view of posts as well as the text will generally appear bigger, therefore making it easier to read.

There are drawbacks...

1. You will not see all the fancy features available in the default skin.
2. Some text or pages may appear out of sync with the original intentions of the designers in order to facilitate your screen display.

These drawbacks are minor. In either case you can swith between skins as you see fit.
