Can I make a suggestion about the UBB Newsletter?

The font is very small and the grey color also makes it quite hard to read (must be my age). Any chance of altering the format?

Thanks.

Maybe I should send out a virtual pair of Mr. Magoo glasses with every newsletter.

Or make a control panel for managing the subscription and allow users to receive it in a "standard" view or "visually enhanced" view wink...

Actually I got two newsletters.
One in html to my registered license email. Bad definition.
Then another to my ubb forum email in text format.
Much easier to read.

I don't know I can see it fine. However, I am on a huge 42inch screen so I can read from across the room. LOL I can say though it was worth reading thanks for the update Rick smile
