Author Feedback: Ha, I didn't expect people to "review", but it's fine that you put your question here. I'll add it to the Fanfic FAQs later:
http://talk.portkey.org/index.php?showtopic=3805
That thread's currently linked as "Become an Author" (when you're logged out here in the fanfic side) and as "Guide to Author Application" (when you're logged in here), right below the log in boxes.
What browser and OS are you using?
I've tested PK's tool to upsize to 18 pt font. It worked in both Firefox 2.0 and Internet Explorer (IE) 7, for Windows XP SP 2. Firefox also adjusted the login panel font sizes correctly, which IE didn't.
I'd recommend you try Firefox because for one, it works so much better with webpage formatting codes. Partial demo here: http://talk.portkey.org/index.php?s=&showtopic=4152&view=findpost&p=395114
I haven't tried Firefox's latest version yet (version 3), but the one I'm using right now, version 2, may be downloaded here. http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
Coincidentally, I was asking one of our techie mods to increase the font size for the forums. She did and gave me this tip too:
"If you want to up the size on just your computer, you can always hold ctrl and then use the scroll on your mouse to increase or decrease font sizes."
Thank you for the kind words, btw. I've been nagging NAPPA a bit for us to update PK's webpages, like updating that "? Help" shortcut on the top right and hiding the Chat shortcut.
