Forum Resolution problems

*Deathknight* · 04-05-2004, 02:55 PM

Alright, I know that most people don't use 800x600 as a screen resolution but I do. It's either that or 1024x768 which makes it look way too small. I've noticed that at my screen resolution that some of the threads I have to scroll to the left and right to read all of someone's post. Why are some of the threads like this and is there a way other than changing my screen resolution to fix it.

Um.. No, I don't think so. Why do you have it so big (small?)?

I use 800x600 also, and the reason that some threads require scrolling is because some people are using sig pics that are too wide (over 550 pixels). We may have to start removing the ones that are too big unless people can resize them below the limit.

I would rather raise the resolution a bit but the only other choice crappy Windows XP gives me is 1024x768. It's really annoying but I have to deal with it.

Its probably because that actually IS how many pixels you have... meaning if it were more things would be taken out, since the screen would be bigger than the pixels.

I mean I wish I had a resolution that was between 800x600 and the other.

*Anarky* · 04-10-2004, 04:19 PM

why don't you get used to 1024x768? i kinda don't get that...

*Deathknight* · 04-11-2004, 06:43 PM

because I'd rather not get used to such a big size.
