You mean like this?

When I did the import I had to choose how the old text fields mapped to the new text fields. I did it like this:
set title from: Base filename set summary from: Caption set description from: Description, if set, else 'default to summary field if custom field not set'
This was a hack because the new summary field is limited to 256 chars,
and there was a chance that text from the old Caption field would be
lost if it was only imported to summary and the characters after 256
were truncated. There were a lot of photos with BOTH Caption and
Description set in the old gallery, and so that's why I had the funny
mapping of text fields. This results in many photos having the old
summary field for both summary and description. I apologize for this,
but it was the only way to preserve data. Please edit the text fields to
suit you.

That part I can't easily fix. Many of the new browsers have a "zoom-in" text feature, where they can increase all the fonts for a given site. On firefox it's Ctrl-+ . Would that help?
Again, I'm cc-ing classicrendezvous in case this helps others. I don't have a way to email the 'set of registered users' yet.
