Soraya,
Are you also having problems with your letters being held from a prisoner for months at a time? I thought I read about it on your penpal site but could not remember if that was you. I have a few suggestions on that problem too if you want to hear.
Do you know if we can change the font size in the message block. I can't hardly see what I'm typing until I post it and it is full of typos. It makes me look like an idiot. LOL

I'll try to find out about that font size, sounds like something for fed-x
yes, that's me, I too have a problem with my mail being held from the prisoner. Most of the time it takes about a month before my letter gets from the mail room at the prison to the prisoner himself. they even tried to file a complaint against me for counterfreighting the envelops...they just have their eye on that guy i write with, they do everything to make his life as miserable as possible. i.e. when he gets a visit from a friend that drove 3 hours, they make that visitor wait for a min. of 2 hours and then like a half hour before visit hour is over, they go and get Michael (the prisoner)
Lately my letters are getting to him faster. What I did is writing other names on it. I'm pretty sure the people in the mail delay room, like we call it, know my exact name. it's easy to recognize because it's not an english sounding name, my last name neither. so now i just change my name so susanne jones or sue-ann holmes or whatever. seems to work...if you have more question, let me know

This is a font size test.
Standard Font Size
Font Size Small
Font Size Large
Font Size Huge
This is a font style test.
This font is Arial
This font is Times
This font is Courier
This font is Century
This is honestly the first time I have used these myself.
If you want to change fonts & sizes you will need to select them in the vB Code box when posting. These are located when you select either "new post" or "reply to post". I don't believe you have the option in the quick response form at the end of a thread / post. Further, I don't think they will allow you to see your post any better because they are not giving you an instant size change.
*Please not that if you notice you have spelled something incorrectly (like I do quite often :) )you can go back and "edit" your post and correct the word(s). There is an edit option under each post. If it is your post, it will let you go back and make changes.
Hope this helps!
David
