About The_MoUsY_spell_checker

I first signed up because I saw really simple computer questions with no answers, and I just had to answer them. Today, my column still has more answers to questions about computers than anything else, but feel free to ask about anything. I can follow up on questions too.

I have been the featured columnist on 16 October 2005, 01 May 2006, 18 December 2007, 12 July 2008, 02 February 2009, 08 March 2009, 24 May 2009, 29 September 2009, 12 November 2009, 05 January 2010, 06 January 2010, and 26 April 2010.

By the way, here's a Facebook group for Advicenators users: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=3174690640

Hi The MoUsY spell checker!
I was wondering if there was a way to make my font on my advice column all bold, because my background is i guess pretty printed, so none of the font colors are very "readable" if you know what I mean. thanks! ps my user name on here is xosodapopx3 so if you would like to look at my column to see for yourself, go ahead :-) thanks again,
Brittney

I wouldn't really recommend bolding the whole page, but you can use CSS to do that.

If you have a paid account and a custom style, put the following code in the Overall Page Layout box. Otherwise, put this in the Describe yourself box in Profile Settings.


td,p,body{font-weight: bold;}


Note that if you already have tags, you should just add the td,p,body{font-weight: bold;} line between them without repeating the style tags. If you have anything else modifying td, p, or body, you should just add the font-weight part without repeating everything else.

Another possible solution to the readability issue (without changing the background) is to put the text in a transparent box. (See example 3 on this page: http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_image_transparency.asp)


div#content
{background-color: #ffffff;
filter:alpha(opacity=60); opacity:0.6;}


For more information about CSS, I recommend this site: http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_reference.asp
