Please enlarge your font

When posting or responding. There are a lot of us on here that are mature and have "old" eyes. We would like to be able to read your message.

I feel sure that our younger members may have trouble reading that tiny, tiny font, also.

Thanks

@dex .....yours is a good size, but some of them use a teeny tiny font. If they have more than one sentence I dont read their post. Thanks for asking.

On my computer: Testing 1, Testing 2, Testing 3, Testing 4, Testing 5, Testing 6, Testing 7

Does anyone know if there is any way to set a larger font as the default instead of changing it each time? Thanks!

@HerRoyaLioness The moderators have said there is no way to change the default font, unfortunately. You have to change it with each post. I think it appears that you can change it under your settings, but it doesn't actually change it.

@Pqfan That font is way too small. If you posted an entire post in that size font I wouldn't read it. It would be too hard on my eyes.

How’s this?

If I post without changing font size, here's what I get.

It should be EASY for QVC to allow us to change the default size. That's the only way thing would get better.

Sometimes my font changes without me touching it.

@HerRoyaLioness. No, unfortunately it has to be selected each and every time you write a response. The Qs system doesn't have the capacity to change the default. It's not a huge burden though, and quickly becomes routine. I use "4".

All of the devices I use can enlarge the font when reading the messages.

Phone, tablet and PCs have this feature.

Yes, of course, those reading posts can enlarge font sizes to accommodate those who opt for ridiculously small fonts and those who seem to think posting in almost there colors is just oh so pretty and is the way to go... The thing is, it's easier just to skip them altogether, so if you want to be heard... avoid this:

It's too small... as is this...

And avoid nonsense like this...

Skipping posts that look like this... and like this...

The problem is that sometimes I can purposely enlarge the font, and it still comes out teeny. Usually that happens if I’m posting from my phone, which I don’t normally do, that being one of the reasons.

So you can’t always blame the poster.

I think mine comes out small. I’ll try to enlarge it.

this worked, I’ll do it from now on. I actually didn’t realize I could change it.

No more small print from me.

If you are reading on an iPad or iPhone, you can zoom in on the page by doing the familar "spreading action" with your thumb and index finger.

If you are on a desktop and using a mouse, if you hold the Ctrl button down with one finger and use wheel (roll forward) on the mouse to zoom in.

Thank you @Imaoldhippie - great suggestion. I am using 4 bold.. I did this a while back and something smart (LOL) was said to me- can you believe?

Any-who, what makes me leave a thread quickly are the ones in tiny print and no paragraphs or different colors spread about (no offense to anyone).

I personally think bolding makes it easier to see but that's my old eyes plus I went into my settings and put text on large.

I couldn't agree more @stevieb, the tiny font is incredibly hard to read along with those who insist on using every color in the rainbow to write one sentence or paragraph.

BTW, this is bold print with #3 font.
