I don't like all the colors.  It hurts my eyes.

Colors can be distracting, but as long as it's large enoguh I don't care about color, font, or whatever.

:      etc.  The only one I use is ... I just wish they would give us a different list of available emoticons.

Text Color:  I often use color (prefer color to black).   

Font Sizes:  I sometimes use different size fonts especially if I know the OP has difficulty reading posts.  

Spellcheck:  The ABC spell feature is great; I wish people would use it more than they do! 

Font Family:  This feature is a nice option which I sometimes use.

I use bold, italic, Book Antiqua, font size 3 and I enjoy using darker colors.  I can't read the normal size that the board uses, hurts my eyes.  There is so much white glare on the pages alone, that's a horrible distraction.. seems they need to do some filling in.  

I forgot to add, I find it very distracting (and skip over quickly) posts that are all over the place with colors & not being able to follow the post or quotes..

i use the regular font and color and maybe i should change that.  it is very boring.  i think others who use the different fonts and colors says a lot about their personalities and i appreciate that!  so much fun!

the one thing that really bothers me are the posters, few and far between, who use that teeny weeny font that you need a magnifying glass to read.  what must they be thinking!

i read most every post , any color or size font. its all good

i'm a graduate of the Evelyn Woodhead Speed Reading Course (lol)

I have never changed anything.  Didn't even notice where the option was until I purposely looked for it just now.  I don't really like reading colors or huge print, but I know it makes it easier for some others, so it's no big deal.

I'm just happy I can now easily use italics/bold/underline on my tablet.

I am so glad I learned to set a decent default font size.

As for the colors I like them but sometimes they can be hard to read so I use them sparingly.

It cracks me up when I see things in BIG RED LETTERS.

       I'd be interested to know if anyone has found research results about the most easily read (specifically, easily read on internet sites) font family, size, color and style.  I've done a few searches but haven't found anything helpful so far.   I went up to size 3 and modified the color after seeing several posters say they had real problems reading the default size (which seems to be a 2) and the default color (which seems to be dark gray instead of black).   But I don't know what's the best for most.

It just does not matter to me one bit
