Got a question for someone, at my advanced stage of decay I am finding
it a problem to read Sea Monkey.  The print is so small in the area
for listing of names etch and across the top where you can read the
incoming mail (not the body of text)is so small.  I know I can hit Ctrl
and + and enlarge the body print.  But the rest if I enlarge it more
than 12 it blocks out some parts of Sea Monkey.  Such as sign in.  Is
there any little trick other than getting a 50 inch monitor to be able
to read this stuff.  I did do the pref thing and did make the minimum
18 but as I said it blocked the name/password so I could not use it and
am now back to 12.  Especially where it says Subject from date above the
body of the msg!  Thanks!

One thing you can do is reduce the pixels on your screen, which may make your wallpaper less beautiful but will make everything bigger. On Linux you can usually do that on a temporary basis, Windows generally wants to bend you to its will and learn to cope with the default behavior.

I had my screen at 1600x900 and the wallpaper looked great, I could get a ton of stuff on the screen at the same time without using a bunch of desktops, and the only issue was that I could READ the stuff :-(

Changed to a less ambitious resolution and the issue went away. I do have an old 42in TV which has a bad picture as a TV. It was replaced under warranty as having bad video, but fed from the computer it's fine. Fits my lifestyle but not my desk space.

Oh, I also have a pair of glasses optimized to exactly my normal viewing distance, and it was a well spent $200 to go with top quality hardware. That helps old eyes, too.
