is it my imagination?

or is the page smaller, or print is smaller, something is different and I went in and checked my settings.
I hadn't changed anything prior but I set it to medium instead of small and everything is STILL small!
Did something change on the server? WTH is going on? Trying to read this is driving me nuts.

ah, all is well here, Ava. Perhaps your computer is having a tantrum. ;)

Did you accidentally hit the "magnification" icon in the bar at the bottom right of the screen? Probably the first thing you checked, but just in case...

Ava, on the top righthand corner of the screen there is an "A" with up and down arrows next to it. That will change your font size on this site. Try it...

And one more thing to try = <CTRL+> and <CTRL - > make the screen bigger and smaller.

Depends on what your computer is using as to which place you change your screen resolution - on mine, the easiest way without keyboard tricks is the bottom right corner - it shows a + sing and next to it is 100% - you can click and change that to different percentages which will change the font size, also.

But we have determined that it's your computer.

On my laptop now, if I don't use a mouse and lock the the pad on the laptop, it changes all kinds of things - like my size text and lose posts, etc - just because my hand rests wrong (or right to it :) )

Good luck.

most likely how it happened when I was trying to do something really quick without plugging in my mouse and tried to
use the pad thingy. Its better but not the same as it was, I'm gonna try some of my computer help topics and do some
more tweeking. Guess I should read more of those help topics anyway, sorry to admit I've always been one to try and
put something together with reading the directions first :lol:
