Why the wide webpages?

[hyposmurf]

Why is it that sometimes I look at CADTutor Community forum posts & they seem to run off my screen? :? Have to keep moving page back and forth to read,bit annoying,its not my text size have cheked that.Is it something new in the website layout

That page contains wide images? I think that a page can be as narrow as the weidest image is. It is just up to us to respect CADTutor's recomandations about the imagine sie.

Yeh I've just noticed its only when wide images have been added to posts that this happens :) .Like for instance the following:

Oh, so NOW you understand why I keep harping on about keeping image sizes to a maximum of 600px :!: :roll:

I'm glad you mentioned it Hyposmurf because as you have mentioned, it can be really annoying. Of course, I do have the power to remove images that are larger than the recommendation but so far I have resisted the temptation.

In the next couple of weeks I'll be making a few minor changes to the forum. I intend to create a new FAQ forum which will contain all those oft asked questions such as how to post an image, how to use the LISP code and how do I get my toolbars back if they have disappeared off screen. New members will be asked to check the FAQ forum first before posting. Perhaps a little tutorial on using the Forum Search facility may also help.

Any other suggestions welcome.

Well I havent even managed to a find free site to put some images on yet :cry: ,maybe my ISP might have some web space for me to use will have to look.That FAQ section sounds like a great idea,but will you have the answers to everyones questions and thus not many posts :) .There are occasions when you see the same old posts appearing, like my express tools have dissapeared etc.Alot of the time I think people are just lazy or might not be able to find the answer using the search facility(maybe thats due to some of the subject titles being submitted that are'nt specific enought to the post).Anyway looking forward to seeing the new FAQ section.
