Default unreadable classified ads in Linn's

Has anyone else had trouble reading the classified ads at Linn's Online
newspaper?

I've got an expensive graphics card and a 19 inch monitor.
Even on the largest size, the text of the ads can hardly be read.

This isn't a good deal for readers or dealers. It doesn't make sense to pay
for ads that can't be read by half the people.

found these unused words floating about:

... and to what point do you have your -=minimum=- displayed text set in

the
options of your browser?


Increasing the text size doesn't make a diference.

This isn't text you can "cut and paste" or select, like email or a usenet
posting.

What does viewing the source indicate? an image or ???

If it's an image, you're SOL.


It's an image, I wanted to order stamps from the classified ads.

They are quite difficult to decipher.

I just looked at the sample issue on linns.com. If you
click on an ad it will enlarge. You could also use the
Opera browser and enlarge everything (up to 1000%),

Yep, that's what happens with poor scanning and high compression ... SOL!
