Is anyone on this site having trouble reading the small print in the "Quote" responses?

Steve had a post where there was small bold type, followed by slightly larger green type and ending in something eminently readable. It looked a mess.

Ran, help.

I have no need for reading glasses, but even I skip over reading the quoted text.  Too small on my laptop, tolerable on my large screen at the office.

By pressing CTRL and + or - you can toggle the size of the text on your screen at any time, so you can bump it up to read the quote, then return to normal, if you want.

Bob I have noticed a number of issues regarding typing of posts and the type since the upgrade took place.  Hopefully ran has also noticed this.
Hope all is well
Best

Bob,
Besides enlarging it I sometimes left-click and drag on a sentence. That puts a blue box around the text and turns the text inside the box white. It helps me see it better.

On a related note, the signature lines at the bottom are the same text size and font as posts. Some posters have quite long sig lines, and it makes it difficult to decipher which is which.

Maybe there's a setting in preferences that all posters could change sig lines to something different than the post text, or vice versa.....

Bob:

There is much to be desired with the re-design. Content, including many notable threads since the re-design, remains first-rate. As I said before in a long critique posted a few weeks ago, I wish the re-design lived up to the content here -- right now, it actually does the candid, vigorous and interesting debate here a dis-service. I hope Ran and Ben truly put some thought into how poorly the redesign has serviced the discussion board in particular.
