Where can I change the default font for posts and IM's?? I'm using the default template and the font is too small...looks like size 1???

Biggs,
I am not sure about this but I looked over a few files. You might want to check out InstantMessage.php in the sources folder and styles.css in the root folder. In InstantMessage.php it references classes in style.css and it also have a few lines with font sizes. I wish I had a more straight forward answer but right now I don't. Please remember to back up any file you experiment with. There are a lot more experienced people on here that might be able to answer this in a more detailed way. Good luck.

I poked around in the Instantmessage.php prior but not the css file...I'll have a look at it and see if I can figure it out. I'm new to PHP so really struggling here. I managed to get my forum up and running very well but this one has me stumped.

If you are using the default template then in the templates folder and then the default folder you will find template.php - open that and you will see a part not to far down that says:
Look in that section down a little bit for:
/* this is the border colour when viewing IMs */
.tborder { border: 6px solid #1C4977; }
table.im, tr, td { font-size: inherit; }
table.im { border-collapse : collapse; }
table.imview td { border: 0px; }

I think you can change the font size by changing the attribute that says 'inherit;'
If you need any help with CSS I would recommend http://www.w3schools.com/
I refer to that site a lot when I need a refresher.
Like I said always make sure you back up a file before changing it.
That has saved my sorry ass many times.
I am in the same boat as you as I am not a PHP guru but have been using this message board for a while now.
Let us know if that works for you.
