Please bring back the option to save my preferred font style and font size ( on default settings). I am using AOL Desktop Gold

My preferred font style is comics sans (bold) and font size is 10 pt. I am trying it to save on the Mail Settings, but AOL Desktop Gold is not accepting it.But I had it before.

    tool bar font too small, as we get older we need it larger, and in search bar

  • SHARON BAUMGARTNER commented  ·   ·  Report

    An option is needed to be able to change the color of the font when I select a specific folder in my "Saved On AOL Folder" list of folders.

  • spreadwingsfdtn commented  ·   ·  Report

    See above
    I suggest a "Submit" or "Save" button when I change the type and font for my mail.

  • Eddie commented  ·   ·  Report

    Why is there no "make permanent" button on the E mail write screen to keep the font and size type I select? Ridiculous to have to change them every time I send an E mail.

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    I would like to be able to set font size like I used to be able to do.

  • Mary Ann commented  ·   ·  Report

    Letters in the browser should be more Bolder to make it more easier to read.

  • Bettyjo Erngren commented  ·   ·  Report

    here's my idea....get rid of the gold and go back to original version

  • Mike commented  ·   ·  Report

    For weeks now when I write an email in my default Arial font (or any font and in a color other than black text) and send it, I receive a reply back to my email and the font has all been changed to Segoe UI font in black text (no color). Why is this happening now? This seems to happen when communicating with people using MS Outlook. Is there an incompatibility issue?

  • Joyce Linsenmeyer commented  ·   ·  Report

    I set the font I want and the size and it keeps going back to something I dont want!!!!!!!! What is wrong with you people cant you get Aol fixed why did you even mess with it in the first place? It is one horrible internet server and I am going to look into something else for my money. I have been with AOL since 1998 and I can say AOL GOLD is the WORST one yet. Go Back to AOL 9 it was better all the way around. And as soon as i find something else i like for my mail and internet I will be calling to give AOL GOLD up.

    When I send mail, it is never centered and the fonts are not the ones I selected. The E-mail looks sloppy. I pay for this service!

  • Maria Mccall commented  ·   ·  Report

    Mail setting / Font and Text / My Bold setting won't hold, every time i set it on and try to compose a mail , it wont automatically be on, I have to manually turn it on every time i compose mail.

  • Dr. Wallace Sife commented  ·   ·  Report

    AOL will not bold the fonts in my letters, unless I do that manually.

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    Why can't I save my font and Text including Bold as before. I have asked this question 3 times with no reponse

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    I went to mail settings and set my font, size and color, It will not stay set and when I click on "reply" I always have to reset it.

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    Please include an option to change the Font size as permanently on AOL DESKTOP GOLD which the old version has.

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    MY IDEA IS THAT YOU FIX IT. UNDERSTAND? YOU SCREWED UP AND I AM ABOUT TO CANCEL AOL ALTOGETHER AFTER TWO DECADES AS A MEMBER.

  • NICK SCHRIER commented  ·   ·  Report
