Did the font/size change or did I just wake up Old?

I need to hire a midget with a magnifying glass to stand by my computer.

I even selected "Large" down in the drop down. Size of the print (or anything else) stayed the same size.
 
If I'm not mistaken, you can also use the controls in your browser to enlarge what you're viewing. The key combination, 'ctrl +' will enlarge, 'ctrl -' will shrink, and 'ctrl 0' (that's the 'zero' key) will reset to default size.

I'm using Firefox, and when I enlarge or otherwise change the size of screen text (and pics), the browser will 'remember' the changed settings for a specific site (like BladeForums), so I don't have to do it again the next time I visit. And using the browser's controls gives a much wider range of available size adjustment.

You're welcome. I saw your post, and it rang familiar. I've only recently 'discovered' the text re-sizing trick in my browser, though it's probably been there since way back. Never quite felt the need to look for it before. But my 50-year-old eyes are getting a bit more tired too, now.

BTW, I have actually used a magnifying glass to 'read' my monitor, on occasion. :D
 
I hear you my friend, there are cruel tricks being perpetrated on us (daily) as we age.
You know the day has arrived when you suffer injury while sleeping :) .....
