There's a horizontal scrollbar when visiting pages, both in the site and the forums. I suspect it's due to the top header.

I'm using 800x600, on Windows XP Professional. Primary browser is Mozilla Firebird.

This site is designed for 1024x768 resolution.

The reason is that since webmasters tend to be more advanced computer users they tend to have higher resolutions -- the design simply didn't work on lower resolutions. Its a tradeoff we had to make.

Hmm, I see. Well, it doesn't matter that much. It's only the top header. All the text is still read-able, without scrolling, though.

Thanks :)

It seems fine on a 800x600 display to me...

I use 1024x768 like Chris but wrigh_g uses one over 2000x1500 on a 17" screen, sometimes I can't see how he can read the text ;)

I actually just got a new lcd so my resolution has increased a couple notches.

You can change the text size by going onto View > Text Size in IE.

That annoys me because sometimes when I'm typing replys in forums my roller wheel in my mouse changes the size while i click shilf...
