I 'M SORRY TO HAVE TO ASK THIS QUESTION BECAUSE I KNOW THAT IT MUST HAVE BEEN ASKED BEFORE AND IS HIDDEN AWAY INSIDE THE `ARCHIVES` BUT MY RPOBLEM IS THAT RECENTLY I'VE LOST THE SIGHT IN ONE EYE AND THE OTHER IS `FAIR` LET US SAY. SO THOSE OF YOU WHO CAN UNDERSTAND MY SITUATION WILL KNOW HOW HARD IT IS TO READ THE `VERY` SMALL PRINT IN THE WHOLE OF THE FORUM, AND HOW DIFFICULT IT IS TO HAVE TO SCAN THROUGH MANY SMALL TEXT. I HAVE SEEN A COUPLE OF THINGS IN THE FORUM THAT IS OF MUCH INTEREST TO ME, THAT HAVE BEEN `MOVED` SO WHEN I CLICK ON THE `NEW` AREA I GET A REFUSAL SAYING I'M NOT AUTHERISED TO VEIW. IS THERE SOME WAY I CAN GET THIS AUTHERISATION PLEASE.

GREETINGS,
WEL I CAN UNDERSTAND YOUR PROBLEM?THATS WHY I WRITE IN BIG CARACTERS TO.
MAYBE,THERE SHOULD BE SOME ICON?THAT YOU CAN PLACE BEFORE YOUR WRITTINGS?SO THAT THE REST OF THIS FORUM IS AWARE OF YOUR PROBLEM.BECAUSE MOST OF THE TIME WHEN SOMEONE WRITES IN BIG CARACTERS.IT COMES OVER AS BAD.
AND WE HAVE ALOT OF MEMBERS WHICH ARE OLDER THAN ON SOME OTHER FORUMS,BECAUSE OF THE GAME.
MAYBE WE CAN THINK IT OVER.HOW TO HANDLE THIS PROBLEM.
REGARDS

HI CAPTAIN1

FIRST I WOULD LIKE TO POINT OUT THAT I HAVE USED CAPITAL LETTERS AND A LARGER FONT SIZE TO MAKE THE TEXT EASIER TO READ. I AM NOT SHOUTING AT YOU... 

YOU WILL HAVE TO REGISTER YOU SHIP SIMULATOR LICENCE KEY TO YOU FORUM PROFILE TO GET ACCESS TO CERTAIN AREAS ON THE FORUM. TO REGISTER YOUR LICENCE SELECT 'PROFILE' IN THE MENUBAR. THEN SIMPLY SCROLL DOWN TO WHERE IT SAYS 'LICENCE KEY REGISTRATION' AND ENTER YOUR LICENCE KEY.

KIND REGARDS

HI CAPTAIN 1. ASSUMING YOU ARE USING INTERNET EXPLORER THEN GO TO VIEWS->TEXT SIZE AND SELECT LARGER OR LARGEST AND IT WILL CHANGE THE FONT SIZE FOR YOU.

ALSO IF YOU GO TO CONTROL PANEL->ACCESSIBILITY OPTIONS THEN YOU CAN SELECT HIGH CONTRAST FONTS.

WINDOWS WILL THEN INTERPRET ALL CONTENT AND MAKE IT BIGGER AUTOMATICALLY.

HOPE THAT HELPS.

[martijn]

OR YOU PRESS CTRL ON YOUR KEYBOARD AND SCROLL DOWN (FOR FIREFOX) OR UP (FOR INTERNET EXPLORER) WITH YOUR MOUSE WHEEL.

THAT USUALLY WORKS AS WELL 

[Stuart2007]

WELL I NEVER... NOW I KNOW WHY YOU'RE A COMPUTER DEVELOPER, AND I'M NOT!

Ich dachte das ist hier ein Deutsches Forum?!?
Wenn man(n) im englischen Forum deutsch schreiben würde, würde man gleich angemacht von dieversen Leuten und hier?!?

Das geht so nicht, ich finde das nicht okay, ich kann auch nicht gut englisch und bemühe mich trotzem englisch zu schreiben wenn ich was dort zu sagen habe, wenn es auch nicht viel ist!!!!

[Gruenling (†2009)]

Volle Zustimmung, dafür haben wir ja schließlich ein zweisprachiges Forum.

[Stuart2007]

traurig. Er ist teilweise blind und läßt Schwierigkeit Messwert bitte ihn verlassen, bis er mehr das System kennt und dann wir ihm umziehen und erklären. Danke

[mvsmith]

THERE IS ALSO THE MAGNIFIER, FOUND AT START > ALL PROGRAMS > ACCESSORIES > ACCESSABILITY.

INTERNET EXPLORER 7 HAS A SIZE CONTROL IN THE LOWER RIGHT CORNER OF THE SCREEN.
ALSO IN 7, HOLD THE CTRL KEY AND USE THE + AND - KEYS ON THE NUMERIC KEYBOARD.

TYPING IN BIG TEXT DOES NOTHING

[Shipaddict]

But make posts big and untidy!

[Stuart2007]

HAVE YOU TWO BOTHERED TO READ THE ABOVE POSTS? CAPTAIN1 HAS DIFFICULTY READING THE POSTS AND IN CLEARLY NOT FAMILIAR WITH HOW TO USE THE TEXT MAGNIFIERS ETC. WHEN HE SAYS HE IS HAPPY AND KNOWS HOW TO DO IT WE CAN STOP THIS LARGE TEXT. UNTIL THEN... (NEED I FINISH THIS SENTENCE?)

[Master Captain]

[Ship Sim]

I think the fourm should have a option that makes all the letter sizes the user wants so he or she dosent have to do anything else with zooming in and out.

Captain,
I’m glad you’re getting it sorted. Welcome to the forum—it’s a friendly, helpful place, even if we occasionally enjoy poking each other with a sharp stick.

You have my empathy. For the past eight years I’ve been the 24/7 caregiver to a friend with dementia of the Alzheimer kind. She is actually fourteen years into that process.
If I’m sometimes snippy, it’s because my patience is pre-allocated.
If you ever want to talk, feel free to PM me.
Best of Luck,
Marty
