How to open this Forum in a reasonable size

[xbigjohn]

I' running Vista an a new HP Pavilion Laptop, with Firefox as my browser. Everything is falling into place, but when I open this Forum it is so small that I must Zoom in at least three times to get it large enough to read! I don't have this problem with anything else, that I know of. How can I get this site to open in readable size??

there is a little drop down tab at the bottom left of this forum that may help

Hi xbigjohn and welcome to the forums

To have the forums open automatically to the maximum size when you log in, you need to make changes in your control panel. Click on 'User CP' and in 'Your Control Panel' under the section 'Settings & Options' click on 'Edit Options'. On this page, scroll down until you come the section headed 'Miscellaneous Options'. There are a couple of options here that should be what you are looking for. The first is 'Message Editor Interface' and the second is 'Forum Skin'. I have these options set as follows: 'Enhanced Interface - Full WYSIWYG Editing' and '-- Vista x64 net full' respectively. Don't forget to click 'Save Changes' if you make any alterations to your settings.

I have no idea what the drop downs mean, but I changed it to Vista x64 Net and it seems to have done the job. Thanks--

The place where you changed it - when you clicked on it, it "dropped down" with a list, right?

Now you know what a drop down is.

Yes, and I knew what a drop down is. It was the information that was in the drop down that was not clear. Just forget it - its fixed now.

Thanks for your help=
