Drop down text size

[justaddwords]

I am trying to figure out how to change the size of the text in the drop down menu. I searched the HELP from the site, but can't find out how to change it. It is to SMALL! If anyone knows how to do this, I would really appreciate your help!

Thanks,

Jessica

How about a link to your site to see which menu you are talking about? If we can see it live, we can pinpoint the correct changes.

Sorry! I didn't think of that. A little background, I am the store owner and I have no technical experience. I am a business major, but I did figure out attributes and some other things for my site! I would love some help. I know that the drop downs appear small in IE. I have Safarri and a 20" monitor and they look fine, but in IE they look tiny! My site hasn't been launched to my clients yet, but I am planning on launching by Thursday! HELP, please!

I also need help with my image sizes too if you have any suggestions. I love the Piggy Banks, but the Holiday Plaques and the Art Accents are either too big or too small. I would love help on those too!

If by "dropdown menu" you mean the categories sidebox, you can change the text size there by adding this to your stylesheet:


#categories {font-size: 1.2em;}

Adjust to taste.


For the images, you definitely need to do some file size optimization! Look at the FAQs and search on image optimization to get a ton of information.
Your thumbnails should be only 2-5k instead of 50-70k. The "larger images" are fine.

I mean the drop down menu in the attributes. Like where I allow them to select a color, etc. That is what I want fixed!

That can be addressed with this:

.wrapperAttribsOptions select {font-size: 1.3em;}

I found that less than 1.3em didn't produce any change. Apparently the size in that location goes by steps (which are pretty steep). 1.6em is the next step - try it for a laugh!
