Rippyman Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 I have dual 22" monitors and my native resolution 1680 wide, about 80% of the photos posted on this site are cut off? Is there an option to view the forums in a wider format? I swear it was designed around a 15" monitor at 800x600 resolution...LOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I'd love to be able to view the forum in widescreen format on my 22", 1920x1080 monitor myself... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is based on a monitor at 1024x768 allowing room for the browser "chrome", scrollbars etc... A better solution than resizing the whole forum, not everyone has a large monitor, would be to add some javascript that automatically resizes all images in the content area to a specific size if they are too large.

That would work as well, its just way too skinny for todays standards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Islander Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 I'm using 19" primary and 17" secondary monitors and it fits fine on either one. Both are at 1280 x 1024. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groomlakearea51 Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 In the immortal words of Freddy Fender... "Wasted Days and Wasted Nights...." and wasted space....[6] I have large monitors because I'm functionally blind.... and I have to change the screen in Win7 to 150% just to see what's being written....
