    You can also use the Ctrl button with + or - keys if you don't have a rolling wheel. Plus to increase the size and minus to take it back.

    On the Mac I use, hold down the key that has the apple on it (next to the space bar) and the + key (= key) key at the same time to enlarge it. (Don't use "shift", just press the = key)

    To make it smaller, press the key that has the apple on it (next to the space bar) and the - key at the same time

    My MacBook enlarges the type, but not the avatars.

    This is easier than clicking on Edit, View, then increasing the viewing size, which does the same thing.
