Re: New Look
I think there's an overwhelming support, demand and need to bring back a variably fixed RPF. I know Art's said that they would at the very least consider the opinions of the membership - I do believe that the points made by Darth Lars show a very strong argument to bring back the variable width that has been couple with public support to do the same.
We've got 'The Junkyard' name back due to popular demand. Hopefully, since there's both a demand and demonstrated need - and let's face, there really doesn't seem to be any real reason not to have the forum set for variable width - we can bring this back.
I just wanted to repeat this for effect.It is too wide for me.
You are incorrectly assuming that all users are:
1. Not using any cell phone, netbook, pad or other device, that doesn't have 1024×768 resolution or higher.
2. Maximizing their browser windows. This is something that I never do. I often have two browser windows side by side on a 1980×1200 monitor, or several windows somewhat overlapping. When I visit this forum, I often open one window for each thread that I want to read. Then I read them and close them off. When I need to refer to a thread, post or another member in a new post, I often keep one window for writing the post itself and a couple of other windows where I do my searches.
I have always said that a fixed width layout is the mark of a lazy web designer ...
