I was dumbfounded at what I was looking at. Nice, big print in the message area itself. Saying, hummm, I jumped over to the
RootsWeb side . . . . teeny, tiny print. Same message, same board; two entirely different fonts sizes.

Sample URL for message from RW PA Westmoreland County Board:
http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/message/rw/localities.northam.usa.states.pennsylvania.counties.westmoreland/2213

URL for same message from Ancestry side: (just change the *an/localities* to *rw/localities*)
http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/message/an/localities.northam.usa.states.pennsylvania.counties.westmoreland/2213

What gives, folks? Can't our RW users and admins have the *easier on the eyes* font size on RootsWeb Board side, too?

It is really weird Kathleen, I just used your two URL's and got exactly
the reverse. The RootsWeb site was using a larger font and was much
clearer and easier to read (The blue/yellow/white). The Ancestry site
(the olive greens) was using really tiny print and was much harder to
read. Why one way on your browser and another on mine???
Does this make any sense?
