Midas Oracle wants you to set your screen resolution very high.
–
- Set the screen resolution of your PC at 1600 x 1200 pixels or more.
- You will probably have to augment the size of the font(s) used by your browser and your other software.
That way, you will have more things on your screen.
And you will enjoy our extended horizontal menu bar, present on top of every Midas Oracle webpage. More menu choices means more opportunities for the web visitors to discover the prediction markets. Which is good for all the prediction market people and organizations listed on those webpages.
