Why did all the fonts on my computer suddenly get HUGE.
Well, it's not the whole computer, it's just most internet pages. Including this hatrack one. Eeek. It's terrible.

IE? View - Text Size - Medium is the typical selection, see what you have. For other browsers, should have a similar setting.

View -> Text Size

You might have used a scroll wheel with the control key hit or something.

If you arte using Firefox, It's prbably because you used shifht- or alt- or control- mouse-wheel (I forget which of these it is). Try holding one of these keys down, and spinning the mouse-wheel forward or back until it's back to your usual font size.

okay, that worked. it changed it momentarily, but it keeps changing back. ex: when i clicked to view this thread, it changed. and when i clicked to post a reply on this thread, the replies of other people got bigger [Dont Know]

Wow, Tater, we had the same question. Bok, you are, as always, a font of knowledge. I knew I'd hit something on the keyboard by accident, but I didn't know what. Thanks from me, too.

ahhh, thanks a million.
You know, I've never even heard of such a thing!
Where'd you guys get those smarts?
 
Posted by Tater (Member # 7035) on :
 
okay, it still makes the links huge.
should i just get used to that?

If you close the browser and re-open, it will probably stop. Just make sure the settings are correct before you do that.
