Hi there,

I just wanted to make a suggestion when everyone posts. Sometimes the posts are long and I'm very interested in reading them, but my eyes start to go buggy by the third sentence!

If your post is long, could you separate it into paragrahs like I'm doing? It would make it easier and I really do want to read everything you all have to say.

Thanks!
Tranquility

I think that's a great suggestion and some might oblige when reading, if they see this request.

A suggestion that I have to help you, off the top of my head, is...

One can do when reading is right click like you're highlighting and just highlight as you read. It really helps in that area...keeps the lines from running into each other when reading.

When you encounter that uncommon post that is that long and you're having difficulty with... you could also copy and paste it to notepad and you can increase the font, break it up, etc.

Also, have you gone into your profile and looked at the different skins? Some have larger fonts if that's an issue. You can also increase the size with your computer settings.

Thanks!

KD

Hi Tranquility,
I do the highlighting thing myself but when I know I'm writing a long post, I try to chop it up into paragraphs. Only when I'm really angry or upset, I don't always remember to do so. I think it's a good idea to ask though. Doesn't hurt to ask. Right? (((((((((((((Tranquility)))))))))))))

The different skins and font sizes really have helped me.

Thanks for the suggestion. I can get really long winded at times so will make sure I do that in the future.

I do too, keb. Just a suggestion when posting

Sometimes I catch myself and sometimes I don't.

A friend here asked me long ago the same request. I try to remember, but when I get started... Just a suggestion when posting

Love,

KD

Yippee!!! Thank you - I didn't know what the skins were! Now I could just put on my reading glasses (that's what happens when you hit 40!) but I'm stubborn.

I switched to large font and it's soooo much better.

Thanks!

I'm so glad tranquility!!!! There's a way to work with alot of things to help us here.

Don't ever hesitate to bring up these types of things again. It might not have only helped you, but other members as well. Just a suggestion when posting
