  Hi!
  I am new to blogging and wordpress and am just trying to figure everything out.
  I just added a text widget to my vigilance themed blog but the text is really tiny. How can I make it bigger and easier to read?
  Thank you very much for any help!

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

  You can add font size tags to the text.

  So:

  <font size="3">I never worry about diets. The only carrots that interest me are the number you get in a diamond. -Mae West</font>

  You can use a number form 1-7 for the font size, number 3 is 12 point. Number 1 is the smallest going up to 7 which is 36 point. Just play around and try them, see which suits you.

  Hmm, that didn’t display to well. Try this:

  <font size="3">I never worry about diets. The only carrots that interest me are the number you get in a diamond. -Mae West</font>
