Just a little nit-pick--the forum pages used to fit perfectly across the width of a maximized browser window (Internet Exploder if it makes a difference), with a screen resolution of 1024x768. Now I gots me an icky little horizontal scroll bar... Looks to be for the most part that the banner at the top of the page is the culprit--it's wider than it was previously. ...and what's with the ghostly Linux penguin in there? Running this forum on a real operating system now? ;D Title: Re:Software Upgrade.... Post by: Gizmo on September 30, 2003, 11:51:57 pm Sorry, I can never tell with my triple head matrox running 3840x1024 with an additional 1280x1024 extension desktop thats used to put stuff where I just don't know where to put stuff ;D
It should be better now. Figure at least everyone must run 1024x768, we're not in the 90's anymore....sites pretty much optimized for IE6 and that resolution. I was planning on jumping to another forum package but considering how we've all been happy with whats up now, no real reason to change. If its feel you're after, theres always skinning but I think this looks fine and is easy on the eyes (Gary can tell you what that was like when the forum was in its early stages!). Other than that, still have to get some sort of realtime chat running on here, and, find another gallery that actually works :-\ Title: Re:Software Upgrade....

Until now. :'( ;) Quote It should be better now. Figure at least everyone must run 1024x768, we're not in the 90's anymore....sites pretty much optimized for IE6 and that resolution. Looks good here at work, which is where I'm stuck at 1024x768 if I don't want a headache by the end of the day. I'm a consultant, so all I deserve is an old 17" NEC while someone on the other side of my wall has a 19" plasma display. :o Title: Re:Software Upgrade....

Have to scroll right to get the last 20% of the page....... :-* Title: Re:Software Upgrade.... Post by: Gizmo on October 01, 2003, 08:39:31 pm Is that better ::)
