@Fel: Wouldn't it be possible to just set the banner at the top to 800 width fixed and then put see-through gifs as banners?

Yes, there is.

Oh, we already KNOW there's something wrong with you and your fetish for ancient crap operating systems and ancient resolutions that HURT.

Unfortunately most of the machines at college run 800x600... some people get around the "security" and change it up to 1024x768...but it means that, more often than not, I have a plethora of scrollbars to deal with.

then hurry up and finish school, so you won't have that problem anymore..

FYI, the author has a graphics pack for this board, and so I was going to design at least a 1024x768 graphics pack, and install it as a theme as well (so you could choose your path, so to speak).

Eventually it'll get done..

I only use 800x600 when playing certain games, such as CS, but normally I'm in 1024x768

I guess it's a reflection of what kind of user you are. My father likes 800x600 or even 640x480 - on the other hand, he says it's so he doesn't need his reading glasses for it

@Jagged Fel: Game resolution doesn't change your workplace resolution.

Usually you do not read this Forum when you are playing CS, no?

(P.S.: BLERGH to CS

)

@Fel: Well, my father has to use reading glasses, but yet he still manages to read his 1280x1024 fine.

I think the original MBs just died.

They have been doing that since yesterday, so I suppose that the webspace with the files is still there, but someone turned off the database.

See, I told Pol that would happen, and that's why we moved here.

actually they work.
One of the tables was full, which means the database must have reached it limit, but it mucst have also have emptied itself.
