To me, the print seems larger than before. We have a large screen, though, to accommodate my husband's eyesight.

We don't have a "view" button at the top. Most of the time the technical computer talk goes right past me because I don't understand the vocabulary. Ex.: I'm not sure what a server is. This has been explained to me before, but the explanations don't make sense to me. Maybe I need a computer class.

Anyway, here's my problem. Every topic that has had a new posting since the switch to the new server still has the dot filled in as if I haven't visited the boards since the switch. I try to visit each day, so now I have to look at the date and time of the last post on each thread to determine which threads actually have something new for me to read. Can this be fixed?

Thanks,

Joanie

Same problems as above, including font size... even though yes I can change it it changes it for every site until I log off the net and re-log back on... VERY ANNOYING!

I'm sorry to complain, but I am not liking this.

I find itmost frustrating that the dots stay filled even though I have visited that page AND topic multiple times..

OK, I can change the font for when I change websites, but that too becomes annoying. Having to change it every time I switch sites. For me the font is way too small unless I enlarge it, I don't understand why some people find it bigger? Maybe it depends on the browser used?

I personally find it very hard to read large and small because the spacing between the letters is too tight. If the spacing was better, the smaller would work.

Just type a line or two in your word processing software in this font in large and small and you will see what I mean by letter spacing. That's the real problem here.

But if you can't change that and the choice is between large or small, at least with large you can make it out and small is almost completely unreadable. But do poll the message boards to get everyone's opinion.

Also, as said previously the "already read this post" dot stays on.
