FORUM / SITE - User Tips

Sadly I feel I have to agree on the width thing.

We all agree about the width thing... and it is in hand. Please be patient...

Yes, width is also bothering me. This is why I'm thinking there should be several options for width. Preferably one of them utilizing the full desktop width. And the right side column should be collapsible if the user wants it to (and this stored to a cookie).

Temporary fix until the width issue is sorted.

?? Full-width is impractical. Nobody realistically can follow along a line of text with their eyes that is 1024px long/wide -- that breaks every rule in the book.

And the right side column should be collapsible if the user wants it to (and this stored to a cookie).

We don't want you to collapse it. It's a fundamental part of the site template and would affect articles and hide the adverts, and that would mean less funding for the site -- and like every magazine publisher, we can't afford to lose these revenue streams.

There's nothing stopping you moving the right side of the browser window leftwards towards the right edge of the forum text area if it really displeases you. And all modern browsers let you scale up/down any page, Cmd-+ on a Mac, not sure of PC, to get the whole site wider and fonts bigger if that helps?

Thanks for saying that. It's much easier to be patient knowing the point has been accepted.
