• 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.

Why is the Font HUGE?

As of yesterday, size of every aspect of this webpage became huge. I have a 22" monitor and I can only see 2 columns at a time of the forum listings.

Attached is a screenshot.

Ah! Looks like you got a free subscription to the blind-as-a-bat version of TFL! ;)

That didn't happen on our side. Did you change anything in your browser? Check to see if your text size option has changed from a normal size to "gargantuan". In both IE and Firefox, it's under View->Text size. Other browsers should have something similar.

Also check to see if you are using the "vbulletin 3 -- variable fonts" skin found in a pull down menu at the bottom of any TFL page.
 
Another possibility...

If, for some reason, you held down the Ctrl key on your keyboard and turned the mouse wheel, it will change the size of the text on your monitor. I've had that happen a time or two. Kind of irritating.

Just hold down the Ctrl key and turn the mouse wheel the other way to make it go back to normal.
 
This is the only website this is happening on for me. I'm using Firefox 3.0.11 and the skin is the default vBulletin 3. I don't have a wheel mouse either.

I did CTRL- several times and that works, I'll see if it sticks.

Thanks.
