• Anything ‘published’ on the web is viewed as intellectual property and, regardless of whether it displays a copyright symbol or not, is therefore copyrighted by the originator. The only exception to this is if there is a “free and unrestricted reuse” statement associated with the work.

    In order to protect our members and TFL from possible litigation, all members must abide by the following new rules:

    1. Copying and pasting entire articles from another site to TFL is strictly prohibited. The same applies to articles from print or other media, and to posting photographs taken of copyrighted pages or other media.

    2. Copyright law provides for “fair use” of portions of a copyrighted work. You can copy no more than a SINGLE paragraph from the article to your post (3 or 4 sentences at most).

    3. You must provide a link to the article along with the name of website. For example: ww.xxx.yyy/zzz (The Lower Thumbsuck Daily News).

    4. You must provide, in your own words, a brief summary of the article AND your reasons for believing it will be of interest to TFL members. Failure to do so may result in the thread being closed or your post being deleted as a “cut and paste drive by.”

    5. Photographs and other images are also copyrighted. "Hotlinking" of images (so that it appears in your message) from other sites is also prohibited unless you own rights to the image. If you wish to share an image, provide a clickable link to it.

    Posts that do not follow these new guidelines will be altered or deleted by staff. Members who continue to violate this policy may lose their posting privileges at TFL.

    Thank you for your cooperation and your participation in TFL, the leading online forum for firearms enthusiasts.

How does one enlarge the text?

This has come up before. It seems that when the program was written, it was set to have a fixed font size of 12pt, bo mattter what your prowser settings are. The TFL staff doesn't write the software, so I doubt there is much that can be done until the next upgrade (maybe).
 
Looks like Rich covered it well in the referenced thread...

.nf {
FONT-FAMILY: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
FONT-SIZE: 12px;

I do wonder if removing the second line from this class in the style sheet would do any harm, though...
 
Glad to help (if I did). Do you have more information on the Opera5 Browser? Some other members may benefit from it as well.
 
Do you have more information on the Opera5 Browser?

Sure. It can be downloaded free at http://www.opera.com/ . What you get with the free download is a great browser with a little advertisment window up top. For a yearly fee the ad box will be removed, but I never fooled with that. The banners don't bother me a bit. I recommend it highly as a secondary browser, Netscape just plain sucks.
