That cute little banner at the top of the store detail page is a little small
IMO if it is used to direct people to the store terms page (which mine does).
Maybe we could make it bigger, or better yet put a banner option on the splash
page. Also, the "By submitting this order, you agree to the Seller's Terms and
Conditions and Shipping Policy" could be moved to the top of the checkout screen
(in bold or color?) instead of at the bottom.

That field accepts HTML, so you can make it bigger if you want. (See my store's
banner)


<font size="+2"> big text </font>

Or to make it use less of your characters you can just put a numerical value
of 1-7 (small to big), <font size=5> is what I use in my store. 4 is
standard font size.

True, but I believe (without looking it up to make sure) that this would not
have the desired effect when the user is already using a different font-size
by changing their browser settings. I agree that the savings on characters is
good (that field is very limited) but I wonder if the three extra characters
are worth using an absolute font size instead of a relative one.

Yes, but I find that most always need those 3 extra characters. Guess it
just depends on each users needs or preference.

That's useful, thanks!

I'm expecting that by the end of the day, all of the forum users' stores will
have gigantic text in their banners!
