 * Hi, I added a new theme and the text was too small for my poor eyesight. I decided
   to use larger text by using Header 3 for all the text on my posts. It looks good,
   but is it acceptable to do this and also will it slow down the opening of my 
   pages. Hope you can advise Alistair Please take a look www,aberdeengardening.

 * It shouldn’t slow things down, but, no, that is not the way to do it. ‘h’ tags
   should be headings. You try to create a kind of grade-school document outline
   with them. Making everything an ‘h’ tag is wrong. You need to edit your theme’s
   style sheet. One solution is to find the .entry definition in your theme’s style.
   css and add something like `font-size:18px;` between the opening and closing 
   brackets.
 * Your edits will be overwritten when you update the theme so consider making a
   [child theme](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes).

 * Thanks,I found where to edit my theme style css. Struggling to find the entry
   definition. Afraid to tamper with it. I can see future problems although using
   Header 3 with my current theme looks amazing if I change the theme at a later
   date it will probably be terrible.
