CS,

I have been lurking the last couple of weeks since I have made an effort to get back into my 6mm hobby after a year and a half of RL priorities.

First let me say I love what you have done with the place so far!

I know you are up to your eyeballs in other changes/issues but is making the theme a bit more Widescreen friendly on the menu? Currently on my 24" 1680x1050 display, the forum takes up about 1/3 or less of the screen. I have also noticed that some larger image attachments make a mess of the screen.

In any case it is not a critical issue and I am sure you have lots of other issues on your plate, so I will return to my lurking corner!

MM

Hi, and thanks for your comments. The issue of screen width has come up (several times ). There are two points that you make. To deal with your second one first, I believe that I have (recently) adjusted the settings so that image sizes dont mess up the layout... but this is something that I am monitoring.

WRT overall screen width, its a difficult issue due to the variety of screen resolutions used by people here. The only real option that I can see is a variable width with a minimum central column, but this means going into the CSS in a bit more depth. It is on my list and I will look into it... although I am not sure when at this point.

ultra wide screens only need to be roped in when pics are involved. - you cant read lines of text longer then a certain amount without losing the line in my experience.

Madmagician you can modify the site css client side using browser add-ons.

And I agree with madd0ctor, you don't really want the text longer anyway from a readability standpoint, it's already on ~130 characters per line which is longish (assuming we follow legibility research such as 1 2 3 and accept 100cpl as a good length, over the 'designer' length of ~70cpl max).

Is it sad that the first thing I did after reading Apoc's post was count the characters on a line ?

I do see that point. And like I said, CS I'm not complaining I really like what you've done with the place
