The font size on the board is MUCH too large. Though this may be a good thing for the seeing impaired, it does reduce the quantity of posts visible on a screen.
Also, contrary to what might be expected, large type is not easier to read for people without seeinhg problems. The way it was explained to me in marketing class is that we learn to recognize words as a whole (which is why even if a letter is missing in a word, we can still recognize what is says), however, when the font is too large, the eye has to scan it back and forth to understand it.
I can reduce the font size in my internet setting or on my computer, but then I'd have to keep modifying it back and forth when I come back here.
Can you add an font-size option so the the seeing impaired can choose the larger font and the rest of the folks can stick to a regularly-sized font?
