MOTORHOMER Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 Hello I have just spent about 20 minutes trying to read the posts on this new forum and the result is a very bad headache. I am finding it very difficult to actually see the pale print on the white background. There needs to be more contrast for visually impaired folk. And a larger font would be most welcome. Thankyou Motorhomer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naittaw Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 I've discovered that if I go to the "view" menu on the Internet Explorer Browser I can choose "Text Size" and increase (or decrease) size to suit. Big improvement ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOTORHOMER Posted March 29, 2006 Author Share Posted March 29, 2006 hello naittaw Thankyou for replying. Mine is permanently set to the largest text size but it doesnt make any difference on this site. Motorhomer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
net-traveller Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 Hi there I don't know which browser you are using but if it is Internet Explorer, the one supplied with the Microsoft system, then the following may be of use. Highlight the browser then right-click and select properties. On the general page select Colours. Unclick the first box (Use Windows colors) and you will be able to choose the colours for the background and the text. Unfortunately, due to bad web site design, not all sites will be changed to your colours. Hope it helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
net-traveller Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 Just another thought. You may like to check out the accessibility settings which can override the defaults in web pages and other programs. You should find this section from the Start Menu. Click start, then click programs, then Accessories, then Accessibility. The Help and Support screens will give more info and links to Microsoft.com which will help in tailoring the options.
