code:
<font style="font-size:20px; font-color:#FFFF00;">Hello World!</font>

You can edit the number and hex value to get your desired result :).

There are multiples way of doing it. You can edit pretty much everything using css,
heck you can make <b> make the text bigger if you wanted to:

code:
<span style="font-size: 10px;"> text here </span>
<font style="font-size: 10px;"> text here </font>
<p style="font-size: 10px;"> text here </p>

alternatively you can use a external css and just define a class or an id:

code:
[in the css]
.big {
font-size: 10px;
}
[/end of css]
code:
[html]
<span class="big"> text here </span>
[/html]
I would show you an example using an id but I cant find the hash on the mac rofl
