Notice that if I tag someone Debbie Gartner and the name looks smaller than the rest of my copy .... it means that I tagged the person and then made my font size larger and the name I tagged is still it's original (too small for my old eyes to read) size.

Now notice that this tag Eric Michael is the same you can read it size as the larger font size that I changed to prior to making the tag.

And that boys and girls is my little tip for the week. No more different sized tagged people in your posts. It's easy and simple

And if you forget you can always go back and back space away the small one and re do it and it will become the larger size. But for me I always increase the font size before I type ... helps my old tired eyes find typos.

Wake me up, wha, wha? Not only do I need to type the AT symbol and wait for AR to actually implement, which half the time it doesn't even respond, but now I need to change the font size to make it more readable, oh plez. Tammy. Tell me it isn't true. I can't take it. Wahahhhh.

Laura Cerrano I use the same size, I bold the first sentence and go ... just got to be habit for my posts.

Judith Parker as I get older I have more and more concern for my would be clients

Mike Frazier wish we could change the size in the comments

Nina Hollander I've always just had my screen at 115%, but after a few clients saying it was small to read and me asking if they knew about zooming their screen and them giving me a blank stare.... yeah, bigger font

Dianne Goode happy to help

REGARDING YOUR #39 DECENT COMMENTING.............

When I found out that you can zoom into your own screen with control plus or minus, I was in ectasy and remain so....Until then, I suffered needlessly....

Excellent tip Tammy. I know one day I'm going to wake up and the computer screen is going to be a little more fuzzy than it used to be and I'm finding myself using larger font!

Tammy, such a small thing, but I do think it makes a difference. I would much rather read everything in the larger font, especially now that I am getting older.

Hi Tammy Lankford now I think you can put as many tags as you want because they do not give points for taggin anymore. I like your advice about increasing the size of the name; it makes sense
