Default larger fonts please.

Hi
Is it possible to alter font size in Limewire?
I apologise if this has been asked before.

Thanks

You could also try changing skins & see if that makes any difference

Thank you for your reply's. It seems there is no solution to this as neither XP home or pro can enlarge text in Limewire. I have tried the skins option but no text enlargement is possible only colour schemes which improve it slightly.

In view of the very small text size it seems odd that this problem hasn't been addressed before, hopefully someone at Limewire will see this and come up with a solution.

Thanks to all

Default Font size

In XP, I went to control panel, display, and the appearance tab. At the bottom is a drop down box for font size. I tried mine at a larger size and it seemed to make a difference in Limewire. However, it changes the font size for everything else too. You might like it though.

Thanks everyone, A friend of mine from across the border named Bruce came up with the best solution and it works well. i.e.
The only way I have found to increase the font size is to start limewire, then minimize it, then right click on your desktop, then click on properties, then settings, and change your screen resolution to something like 1024 X 768 or even
800 X 600 it will certainly look bigger, I have just tried it and you can see it really works.

The only down side is the other text is almost 3 foot high
Just kidding.
Thanks again
