  • Open thread, image has text too small to read. Right click, open image in new tab, still too small to read, Ctrl + mousewheel until I'm at 250% zoom and the text is about as large as what you're looking at right now. Can finally read it, in all its blurry brown-on-tan glory.

    Is there deadass really no better way to present this material?

    It explain the monthly fortune  o:)

    Edit: just in case.. -.-
    it take hours to decypher the tiny characters..
    I read the headlines.. the joke, the fortune and skip what I consider unreadable.
    So rather than recognise the effort the botters went to, to set all that up - for the benefit of the players, to help get certain items, something you could never be bothered to do, you would rather drag people backwards to your neanderthal world?

    Leave attended paying accounts alone, these people go thru a lot of trouble to play/automate the game.

  • They'd be way better off just pasting the images and text directly into a thread with headers for the different sections. Shopping it all into a single unreadable brown-on-brown PNG file is just putting in extra work to make the content less accessible.

    I go to Ultima Online FB page and then click on the picture of it there. I can copy/paste that into Paint and it's huge. I can read it fine then. You do have to actually click it first though. Bit of a pain, but at least it's only once a month.
    A Goblin, a Gargoyle, and a Drow walk into a bar . . .

    Never be afraid to challenge the status quo

  • Unfortunately, the forum does not allow files larger than a certain size. After much fiddling with the image, it has to be reduced to 35% in order for it to be allowed to be posted. On the main website though, there is the full size image available (as it's at 100%, which is quite large).

    Right click, select 'open link in a new tab' (or window) then you can zoom it.
