My fonts are smaller than previously. Also looks like a different font. All the other websites I use are the same as always. The only change is here on AA.


Thanks.

What happens if you hold Ctrl and press + ?
And what Web-browser are you using?

It does make it larger but it's still not right. I even went to preferences and changed the font size but that doesn't make a difference.
I'm using Chrome but I tried Firefox and it looks normal in FF.

It looks better now. After going to Firefox and back to Chrome it now looks normal.???? It's weird.

Thanks. I don't know what was going on.

And in the first two post your font is first bigger, then smaller, and in the last post a brand new font...
That has happen to me too, it's the web- browser that messing it up.

I don't know, I'm having tons of trouble lately with AA loading correctly. Only site that's doing it to me. I'm on Chrome.

You control the font size by selecting the A a area on the reply header, right next to the bold, underline and italic area. Sometimes my fonts change when someone has been working on the site, but usually I am using size 5 and new times roman font.

Noticed how I changed it????

I did clean my cache, even signed out (I usually stayed signed in), cleaned my PC, and everything else I can think of.

It may not be AA, but I'm not having the problems loading other pages.

I never paid attention to the headers until I went to McCann and took Keyboarding 101....... It is fun to pay with the fonts and the different texting tools.

Thanks. I know how to do that but that wasn't the problem. However, I was fooling with the font sizes and types to see if I could fix things that way. What was interesting, too, is that I would select a font and size and would type something and then after I posted the reply it wasn't what I chose. My font type and size just changed on its own late last night and not just for text that I would type in but for everything. It was the same today. I even tried changing preferences but that didn't help. I used Firefox and all was fine there. Then I went back to Chrome and for whatever reason everything was back to normal again.

@Macawnutz My cache was clean and I also exited Chrome. It started late yesterday and today it was the same but, again, only in Chrome and only on AA.

Weird, but we never know what is really happening to our computers at any given time. Mine will change, too, but I can always change it back easily. I have fewer problems now that I use Chrome than I did with IE. Make sure your computer does regular scans to avoid worms.

Scanning is always a good idea and I did full scans with Kaspersky, Spybot and Malwarebytes the other day.
