Requesting help with a specific IPB 1.3 style - Posting Box Text Size

[Bearded Kirklander]

I'm using one of those free IPB 1.3 hosting places so I can kind of get the hang of how forums work. So far, not too bad.

But I have one specific issue that is driving me bonkers, and no matter how hard I search or how hard I try, I cannot seem to find an answer. So, I wanted to ask here.

Right now on this site, I am composing a post in an edit box. There is the TITLE edit box, then there is the MESSAGE edit box. On this site it looks like the text is 12px, or thereabouts. It seems to match the font size when you actually view the post in the forums, which is great.

However, on the IPB 1.3 with the default skins, it looks like the font is about 9 or 10px instead of the 12 I would prefer. I have searched in the style sheet for the site and cannot for the LIFE of me find out where to change that value.

I would like it to be 12px for both the POST NEW THREAD/POST REPLY box as well as the Fast Reply box. Don't know if they are different.

I have had no trouble working with the Styles to set the signature properties, the lineheight settings (changed from 160% to like 120% spacing) plus I've done all sorts of other semi-complicated stuff in the Manage HTML section. But I can't find where to adjust that text font size so it will default to a larger font that is more readable.

So, if someone could please assist me, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thank you,

BK
