Okay that's very simple. Just go to the Virtual DJ folder under skins you find the hc4500.zip file.
Just unzip the file and edit the xml file with an editor. Search for

Now the font-color is white. Edit the size for a larger font. Now You can test it in VDJ, when it works zip the xml-file and the bmp file and have fun.

You can also use the Skin Resizer Tool: http://www.virtualdj.com/addons/tools.html
It has a window to change the font/size/color of the browser part.

I don't want to sound totally dumb, but I am not a computer expert like many of the people here are.
I was hoping you can explain how to do this in easier terms/words (more explanation regarding zip & unzip and have no idea what you mean when you say edit the xml file with an editor).
Can you give me more instructions? I don't know how to re-zip the files either.
So sorry for my small amount of knowledge. I REALLY appreciate your help on this, thanks so much!

To rezip files, all you need to do is select serveral files in the windows explorer, then rightclick on one of the files, select "Send to" and then click on "compressed archive".

Okay Bob, no problem. When you have unzipped the HC4500.zip just rightclick on the xml-file and chose "open with" and select "Editor". Now you can make the changes and save the file. After that zip the xml-file and the bmp-file.
