The World Thru My Eyes - I speak my mind and man does it like to talk.

I don't know why but all of a sudden joeuser.com has shrunk on me and it's very annoying. The only thing I can remember doing was cutting and pasting and all of a sudden the web page would shrink. First it was the home page, then individual articles, now all the pages look shrunk. I did notice the pages were not showing to well (not organized as before with the different web page sections all over the screen rather than ther way they were before) ever since I saw the article about the site being updated.

Has anyone had this problem? Could it be the new site update? Could it be any of the add-ons I recently added to my firefox browser? It only happens on JU so far. I tried disabling all the add-ons and clearing out all the private data but still looks the same. Any info will be greatly appreciated. This small screen is annoying.

Try hitting CTRL and + at the same time. This should help... Do you use Mousescrolling a lot? When holding down CTRL and scrolling with the wheel it has the same effect as CTRL and + or CTRL and -.


You might also try CTRL-0 to revert the View to Standard-Zoom.

You are a lifesaver my friend. Thanks, it worked perfectly. I do use scroll a lot, in fact I have a logitech wireless nano mouse with a free wheel scroller. But never this happen before to me and it happened after I did a cut/paste thing. Well, thanks.

I just tried this and made the page very tiny.

That would suck if it stayed like that.
