Website Changes - Font size smaller. - Lud
It's all gone small

Check the spam mail in your inbox. If it's anything like mine, you should be able to sort out any size issues. : )

But really, I take it this is the new font?

But don't say a small f******** just small font. And it's only just changed.

There's a post related to small text on a larger monitor already but this is just the text in this part of the website. Noway would I change the size of text to make this bigger. Thankfully I have good eye sight.

Actually this must be a mistake. Text is too small!
It's all gone small - normd2
looks exactly the same to me but then I'm using a Dell Latitude X300 just now :(
It's all gone small - Lud
Make it big again please.
It's all gone small - Dipstick
Coo! Extra titchy mode.

Time to press CTRL + then for this site.

In Internet Explorer it makes no difference if you make the default text size largest either. So no way with IE to fix this it seems. Or not at first attempt.

Fix it please.

Firefox is Ctrl and + or - to enlarge or reduce; IE Ctrl + move mouse scroll wheel in required direction for similar result.

Amazing, that worked. Perhaps I will have to make Firefox the default browser now.

Not really. It's built-in...:-)

Why is the writing so small? - wobblyboot
Have I broken my computer or has the writing got very small?
Why is the writing so small? - Avant
I thought it was my computer too. Perhaps someone will be along to tell us how to get it back to what it was. One of the many strengths of this forum has been the pleasant-to-read typeface.

It's also much slower this evening - maybe that really is my computer!
Why is the writing so small? - Bromptonaut
Agree with above; its a bit of a strain to read. CTRL + seems will increase the size, but at the cost of expanding the whole screen so it no longer fits the monitor. If it's a technical necessity fair enough but perhaps eithe HJ or Steven could explain?
Why is the writing so small? - Martin Devon
What type?

Yup, and the changes are messing up my flash add-ons (IE 6). Anyone else suffering?

If it's flash add-ons you want, check out the fake sunroof on the other thread. };---)

I think it must be the end of the world.
Everything has gone very small, and v e r y, v e r y, s l o w.

I'll try the other cake.

Frankly that is too small as a default.

Just realised it's a public service to improve safety and reduce congestion.

Goodbye all you who can't read it, your bus pass is available from HJs office and you can advertise your car for sale on the other board!!

It's not changed for me using Safari 3 on Mac OS X. It was always Arial too (scientifically the easiest font to read which is why it's used on UK number plates).
It's all gone small - MichaelR
IE6, looks the same as it always did?
It's all gone small - madf
Too much s## makes your eyes go funny.

Either my Alzheimers has come early and I've forgotten the sex, or it's too small...

Please fixit...

Yes, it's gone very small and very hard to read.
Especially on long posts, it will confuse the eye, making you lose your place.

Any text with more than abuot seven or eight words slows down the reading speed.

I have emailed the Mods, perhaps one of them will be along shortly to explain what has happened.

I'm using AOL and it's gone small.

Looks pants.

It's gone small to save on bandwidth, which is the major cost of running HJ's website. Big text = bill bandwidth bills. HJ gets to pocket the difference, of course.

Gone small here too now. I'll need glasses at this rate.
It's all gone small - jc2
Leave it alone;I like it!!
It's all gone small - MichaelR
It's gone small here now as well. Awful.

When will they stop trying to fix what isn't broken?
It's all gone small - Xileno {P}
Looks OK to me. I have a Dell monitor.
It's all gone small - Mapmaker
I have seen no difference. IE 6.0.2900....


It's all gone small - MichaelR
All you guys who see no difference, was the same with me. It'll randomly change for you in the next few hours.
It's all gone small - Ruperts Trooper
The font style, Arial, is fine it's just toooo small.

Not practical, please change it.

I presume (hope!) you meant to add a wink or similar to that, LY. Never underestimate the credulity of your audience - I once persuaded a sales colleague that his new lightweight laptop would get heavier as he filled up the disk drive.

You should have all gone to SpecSavers.

Yes right - mine has well. Change is difficult for us all, so rather than make your suffering worse I've locked it.

Was that the same colleague who was sent out to buy the tin of striped paint?

No more to add to this - we've advised the website designers, we'll get back to you. Threads merged and locked. Any more discussion on this will be added here or deleted.
