    Hi, I'm blind in my right eye and short sighted in my left eye.
    I think this is the right place to put this.
    Anyway, I was wondering if boards could somehow make the text bigger on the website as I often have to copy and paste text into word and enlarge it so that I can see what people are talking about.

    Just a suggestion.

    You may already have tried this but if you are using Firefox, try holding down Ctrl, Shift and the + key, this will increase the text size for you...

    You can do this more than once and the text size keeps increasing, after a while it becomes too large and some lines of text start overlapping on some pages.

    It's just ctrl and the plus key you need to hold down. Same thing works on Safari and Camino.

    This tip might be of some use: If you are using IE, check Internet Options, General, and Accessibility on the bottom right. You can strip out the font styles.
