I'd like to make the read more tag font size larger so it's a little more obvious at the bottom of posts. I've tried using the following in the html of the individual post but it does not work. Please advise.
<span style="font-size: 25px;"><!--more--></span>
Create a new thread and tell me what problems you are encountering and what you want to know. 
There is no step 3 :)
