    Am I just being my technologically challenged self, or is it harder to get the font/color/size to work on your posts?? I had to edit the last one several times, and it still didn't come out right. I know this is a small thing, but I like my orange color and it's easier for my old eyeballs to see a larger font size. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    I'm testing right now...

    From what I understand, the font size did not change, but the background color is sightly darker, and the text is no longer white - it's a pale gray. That may make the font look smaller/harder to read compared to the old format, but it's still being tweaked from what I understand. I know just from my graphic design background that reading reverse (white/light) text on a dark background is ALWAYS going to be more difficult than black text on light.

    So testing to change font color and sizing...
    Using setting number 2 text here in this sentence. This is the default size for all text from the look of it.
    Using setting number 3 text in this particular sentence.
    Using setting number 4 in this sentence and changing the color too...

    No problems changing size or color for me... maybe it is a browser issue? I use Firefox if that makes any difference.

    In Firefox, you can go into your preferences and change the default fonts for ALL sites - both color and sizing. It's under "Content" and then go to the Advanced section of the Fonts & Colors area. It gives you a checkbox to allow your choices to override the settings of all websites - so you could technically play with the font sizing to see if you like that better.
