In most cases, one only needs to make a simple change to their resolution settings.  I prefer viewing at 800 x 600 resolution, and most sites are designed to be viewed that way, though that may change in the future.</div> <bR> <div> For Windows 98 (Win 95 should be similar):</div> <div> Click on Start</div> <div> Click Settings</div> <div> Click Control Panel</div> <div> Click Display</div> <div> Click the Settings tab</div> <bR> <div> Notice the resolution settings. They are probably set a 640 x 480 pixels. Change it to 800 x 600. Then click Apply or OK. Either will do the trick. Your computer may ask you if you would like to restart the computer for the changes to take effect. I have found it not necessary to do this. I just click Apply.</div> <bR> <div> This will not work with all monitors as some don't have higher resolutions, but should help most of you out there with the newer systems.</div> <bR> <div> If anyone would like to give me specific instructions for changing resolution settings on other operating systems, please send them to <A HREF="mailto:waxplanet@sunflower.com" TARGET="_top" TITLE="mailto:waxplanet@sunflower.com"><U><B>waxplanet@sunflower.com</B></U></A></div> <bR> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <I><B>Extra information about the browser settings.</B></I></div> <bR> <div> <B>Internet Explorer 3.0</B></div> <div> To hide your toolbars in Internet Explorer 3.0, select the View menu.</div> <bR> <div> <B>Hiding Your Toolbars</B></div> <div> Then click Toolbar to uncheck it.</div> <bR> <div> This removes the buttons and location bar from view.</div> <bR> <div> <B>Changing Fonts</B></div> <div> You can change your browser fonts by clicking Options on the View menu.</div> <bR> <div> <B>Options</B></div> <div> Select the General tab in the Options dialog box.
