Okay, at first it was reasonable seeing as I could CTRL + "-" so I can get to the database or use the Amazon link. Now, it's completely ridiculous.
Can anyone help me with this? I need to make the tabs smaller without resorting to using the CTRL feature. I hate a small screen.
Browser: Chrome 12.0.742.122
Current Resolution is at 1024 x 768 on Windows 7 Home Premium (64-bit)
What is the reason for this?

Is that the optimal resolution for your monitor?

Yeah, it is.
Is the problem with my monitor? It's a CRT-type monitor, by the way.

You could use AdBlock to block navtabs you don't use. Such as Homepage and Site Rules.

Doesn't even go that high
And at 1280 x 1024, everything looks WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY zoomed out. The icons (including the text) are smaller than the size of a dime :f6:

Uh. The size of your text should be roughly half the size of a dime. Dime sized is Visually Impaired reading size.
It's not having what you want - It's wanting what you've got.

...What?....
 Goodbye easy reading, hello glasses
Meh, I'll get used to it eventually. At least I finally adjusted my icons so that they look organized now instead of halfway down my desktop.
Thanks for the help!

I give up. Couldn't do it. Straining my eyes is not worth it. And I know it has to be the monitor now. It doesn't do it with my brother's 19'' monitor.
And going back to what Eos said: I "re-measured" the size of the letters and it's smaller than that at 1024 x 768. My letters are about...1/3 or 1/4th the size of a dime. Only saying that because I can't think of any other way to size it. Well, I guess you can also say that if I were to use a size 12 font (which I think is standard on webpages??), I'd be going down to a size 8 or a 10. If I were to go back to that small sized font on this computer screen, 5 sentences (each on a different line) would be the size of a dime.
So yeah, screw it. I'm gonna have to save up for a new monitor.

You know, if you hold control and move the mouse wheel up/down, it'll shrink/expand the contents of whatever you're viewing, be it desktop or the internet.
Or, if you have a laptop, I just use two fingers to drag out/in like you would on an iPhone/iPod.

This, I know.
I just wish I can make things, like the tabs, more compact, rather than smaller. Or make them smaller without making everything else smaller.
