    Posting Help/Hints

    Good morning all!

    I just wanted to say that although it may just be me:

    I wear glasses/contacts
    Have limited time to read
    I am interupted NON-STOP
    Have a smaller viewing screen

    But when everyone posts, it would be really helpful (and waaaay easier to read) if there was some spacing in between paragraphs or thoughts to break up the sometimes lengthy posts/replies.

    I lose track of where I was reading when I look up every 3 seconds to check on the dck's and can't find my place so I often end up skipping the long responses/posts.

    It is also really hard to read the replies/posts that are written in ALL bold. I feel like I am being yelled at....

    Just sayin'

    I agree!

    I am using an iPhone with a small screen and it is much easier reading a post with breaks- so much to the point where I just skip the long posts with out breaks, spaces or gaps

            It does make it easier to read.

                  If I see a long paragraph I usually break it up. Although I may get to it later them most want.

                  What size screen do you have? What size screen do you want?

                    I wondered why there were so many posts edited by Michael. ::

                    I agree, there are just certain forum courtesies that need to be followed wherever one goes online. Some people just aren't aware of them, I think.

                    Thanks for giving them a head's up.

                        Many know this already but I just learned it the other day.

                        Press the Control (Ctrl) button and use the little wheel on the mouse to zoom in or out.

                        Then you can read it like this or BIGGER!

                            :: Yeah, I use to do it one word at a time until I started copying and pasting it into Micrsoft Word. There is a function that does it quicker there.

                              I always wondered why so many posts were edited by Michael! I had no idea and now it makes perfect sense! The "behind the scenes work" is never ending! Thanks Michael for all you do!
