Without my glasses on my vision is 20/800. I was born with cataracts and can't play AH for very long at one sitting. I like you Waffle but I think you take you vision for granted.

Post by: Wotan on July 27, 2005, 05:49:54 PM: There's an entire 'paragraph' of icon. You don't need 20/20 to see that. You can also increase it to 'billboard' proportion.

That's why 'night' is so popular with some. It blocks everything out but the icon...

Look at all the whining about the gages in AH2.
