  I accidentally did something to my blog (barbcollinsbooks) making the entire blog HUGE! This has happened on my laptop, I think because of something I did with the mouse pad vs. and hand held mouse. I have another blog and I don’t have the same issue with that blog. Also, on OTHER computers I don’t see the SAME PROBLEM, if you get my drift!!
  Thanks for any support you can offer!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi.
  its a little hard to tell for me because I can’t see your blog (set to private).

  Did this happen when you were just viewing the blog?
  go back to the page and press (Control) 0 or (Cmd 0)
  see if that resets the size.

  Else
  did the size change right after you edited the blog or posted something new?

  YES!!! Control 0 did the trick!! Thank-you! Can you explain why this helped and, actually, what I did wrong?

  I am guessing, if you are using Firefox, Internet Explorer, or Chrome as your browser.:

  That you accidentally bumped the “control” button and your mouses scroll wheel at the same time.

  If you hold “control” and move your mouses “scroll wheel” back and forth you will note that you can zoom in or zoom out on a page.

  Control 0 will reset your zoom.

  you can also use just the keyboard:
  control + to zoom in
  control – to zoom out.

  control 0 reset zooms to the default 100%.

  now a minor mistake lead you to learn some new tricks!
