Liz: I changed the font sizes using the FF text-size tool. See http://www.fatpawdesign.com/textresize.jpg Maybe obvious, but maybe not. So this is a client-side (tex) styling technique you'll have to accomodate (or not). I haven't looked at the html or style sheet, but probably more important than the actual font size is how the site degrades when they are changed. If the site changes form gracefully, the font size may not be so important.
