Image files are very much larger than text files, and take a long time to download. Also, it is much easier to create text than an image.
Your Web page can adjust the size of the font used for a section of text. The following increases the size of the text:
<big> Section of text with new font size.</big>
And you can decrease the size of the text:
<small> Section of text with new font size.</small>
If you want particulary large text do this:
<big><big>Section of text with new font size.</big></big>
To change type color, do this:
<span style="color:red"> Section of text set in red.</span>
Other colors are "black", "blue", "gray", "green", "yellow", and "white". You can combine size and color changes:
<span style="color:red"><big> Section of text with new font size and color. </big></span>

<big><b> ... </b></big>
is properly nested.
<big><b> ... </big></b>
is not properly nested.
Usually browsers work as you expect even with poorly nested tags.
Practice these tags in the following:
