After being on another Proboards forum for years I'm used to having to pick my font/size each time. I guess I don't think about it anymore. What I haven't figured out is how to change font/size from a mobile device (namely my iPhone) so I primarily use my desktop (I LOVE my mouse).
I tend to use Trebuchet MS and Size 4 or (5 sometimes) with occasional Italics and Bold.

Highlight the text in your post. Click on Font Face to change the Font (I use Trebuchet MS). Click on the down arrow next to Font Size to increase the size (I use 4 (14Pt).
After you've done this you can go right to posting it or you can preview it to make sure it's to your liI when I click on the font face the highlight is gone, what am I doing wrong?

fanthom8 , I missed seeing your post while I was on vacation. What kind of device are you using to post? Computer, tablet or a phone? Knowing that might tell me why you're having trouble. In the meantime, you could always click on font face or font size before you start typing. That will change the text type/size before you start typing.

Hi llyan, thanks for getting back to me, I used to be able to get to the part where the options were to change things, now I can't even do that, I can't find it, I click on the part that says font, size, etc. but it just takes me to this post, I'm using a laptop computer.
BTW, hope you had a nice vacation

Never mind. I figured it out.How did you figure it out? b/c I can't do it When you reply, make sure you're using the reply button on the right and not the quick reply on the left: That gets you to the drop down box to pick your font and font size. You can select your font and font size prior to typing your message if you're having trouble with highlighting the text.
Worst case, you could always use the BB Code option. It's very similar to how the old IMDb board worked.
putting the text: font size ="3" in [] will change the size to whatever number you pick (between 1 and 7, which equates to 8pt to 36pt font size). Putting the text: font = "impact" in [] will change the font to the desired font (choices include: arial, comic sans ms, courier new, georgia, impact, times new roman, trebuchet ms and verdana)
Let me know if that helps.
